 The MEPC, since its formation in 1981, has provided political analysis of issues involving the greater Middle East. Through its programs, publications and Web site, the Council strives to ensure that a full range of U.S. interests and views are considered by policy makers.
We challenge the conventional wisdom, ask the difficult questions, encourage a wide spectrum of views, provide forums to stimulate thinking.
The Council strives to fulfill these objectives through three major activities:
Middle East Policy - a quarterly journal of political, economic and social analysis.
A Capitol Hill Conference Series - forums for members of Congress, their staffs, federal government officials, foreign policy experts and the media.
Workshops for high school teachers - daylong training sessions to build a fact-based foundation for educating America's youth about the Arab world and Islam.
KNOWLEDGE, INSIGHT AND PERSPECTIVE - THESE ARE THE PATHS TO UNDERSTANDING. THEY ALSO ARE GOALS OF THE MIDDLE EAST POLICY COUNCIL. |
