CFR-Brookings Institution Election 2024 Virtual Public Event: The Future of the Middle East
Description
The Council on Foreign Relations (CFR) and the Brookings Institution Foreign Policy Program are collaborating to convene an expert discussion to examine the future of the Middle East.
As part of a series of virtual events convened by CFR and Brookings in the lead-up to Election Day, the conversation will examine the escalating conflicts in the Middle East and the policy options and priorities for an incoming U.S. administration in the region.

Both projects are made possible in part by grants from Carnegie Corporation of New York.
