"The Middle East, Fragmented Societies and the Future"
I was excited to later find out that the Foundation also started a research center. Too often, governments appear to do only what is needed to sustain the status quo.

That changes when officials have better information and options, and that is where research centers like the Foundation’s Center for Middle Eastern Studies play a role. They are vital conduits linking dedicated policymakers with good ideas.
