Research
In pursuing its mission, the Brookings Doha Center conducts research and programming that engages key stakeholders from academia, business, civil society, government, and media on key public policy issues in the following core areas: (i) Democratization and political transitions in the Middle East; (ii) Middle East relations with emerging Asian nations, including on the geopolitics and economics of energy; (iii) Conflict and peace processes in the region; (iv) educational, institutional, and political reform in the Gulf countries.
Open to a broad range of views, the Brookings Doha Center is a hub for Brookings scholarship in the region. The center's research and programming agenda includes mutually reinforcing endeavors, including: convening ongoing public policy discussions with diverse political, business and thought leaders from the region and the United States; hosting visiting fellows drawn from significant ranks of the academic and policy communities to write analysis papers; and engaging the media to broadly share Brookings analysis with the public. The Brookings Doha Center also contributes to the conceptualization and organization of the annual U.S.-Islamic World Forum, which brings together key leaders in the fields of politics, business, media, academia and civil society, for much needed dialogue. In undertaking this work, the Brookings Doha Center upholds the Brookings Institution’s core values of quality, independence and impact.
