The Center for Middle East Policy (CMEP) is dedicated to the formulation of more effective and sustainable U.S. policy toward the Middle East. It conducts research to illuminate the issues that shape, or should shape, U.S. policy toward the region and the major trends affecting the lives of the people who live there. Established in 2002, CMEP furthers its mission through research, convening, publications, and private exchanges. Its scholars reflect varying points of view and work to foster a productive, nuanced, and informed debate.
