We are excited to share our latest podcast interview with Lebanese NGO worker Omar Kraidy @OmarAmerkr Omar tells us about everyday life challenges in #Lebanon drawing attention to the condition of refugees: Download part 1 & 2 of our interview from our website

We were delighted to welcome @ChinigSf for a podcast interview featuring his research on street art practices in Jordan and Morocco: a fascinating case study exploring how local artists can reclaim ownership of the public space

Response of #Algeria-n authorities was quick: Ministry of Foreign Affairs recalls its Ambassador in France for consultations. Relations between Algeria and France countries were never easy. Considering local politics in both countries, negotiations will be complicated.

Please join: talk about the role of think tanks in a international system characterized by simultaneous “rivalry and cooperation” ⁦@wuzhenwic⁩ ⁦@ECDigitalFuture⁩

Picture reportedly today, the anti Kais protests have only just begun… with state media not knowing how to cover such large protests with Kais getting 91% in some polls.

We will soon be publishing our next podcast episode on the implications of the Lebanese crisis and feature an interview of civil society actor (and member of the @WolrdBank Youth Advisory Group) @OmarAmerkr

Have a look at the Middle Eastern Special Collections @ubleiden, a useful resource for (remote) research, education and anyone interested in the Middle East and the Islamicate world. 📜 https://t.co/mBtmIgOKSW

📢📢 Calling for survey participants 📢📢 I am conducting an online survey to understand the construction of cultural #heritage in the Middle East and the meanings of #Arab, #Islamic, and #SilkRoad museum materials!🧿 Please share with your networks! 🙏 https://t.co/gXw2wiuzUH

It's been at least 3 weeks since #Tunisia's healthcare system is overwhelmed and has partly collapsed (with people dying in front of crowded hospitals). All the international aid that Tunisia got since then is 2 Qatari military planes and 2 Egyptian military planes.

Social capital? Mental health? New indicators of social inequality? Climate and conflict? Share your ideas: #under_researched_MiddleEast

We will soon be listing under-researched themes in online survey to think collaboratively about an alternative research agenda for applied social sciences in the region...

The sector of research remains highly dependent on the agenda of foreign donors and we would love to initiate a debate on alternative research agendas and priorities. Please share your ideas on Twitter using: #under_researched_MiddleEast

MERH will soon be launching an online survey initiative led by our associate member @KathyaBerrada, inviting you to identify under-researched topics that deserve more attention across the Middle East and North Africa region

Now that #Algeria-n authorities have jailed journalists, activists, party heads, average protesters & citizens, it would not be surprising for them to jail lawyers as well. Despite having a “legalistic” immunity, lawyers are “annoying” & potentially dangerous for the system.

We look forward to meeting everyone and are delighted to see MERH's community growing

We are proud to announce that our first online training will bring together young participants from across the region (Tunisia, Egypt, Sudan, Libya, Lebanon and Syria) and from a range of expertise (social and political sciences, psychology, computer sciences...)
