Area Panel for Middle East and North Africa 

The Area Panel for the Middle East has established a UK-Middle East Capacity Sharing Partnerships scheme, which now forms part of the International Partnerships scheme, to support the development of ongoing links between UK and Middle Eastern research centres or institutions, within the humanities and social sciences. The link would be built around a specific research theme of mutual interest. This could be carried forward through visits in both directions; workshops; seminars and lecture programmes; collaborative research; and joint publications. The programme might form part of either institution's training programme and will ideally involve participation from more than one Middle Eastern institution, and might also involve more than one department, university, group or research center in the UK.
