Dear Colleague,

This month, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Programme looks at the foreign policy opportunities for the next UK government with Syrian refugees.


Catch up on all the content from our recent conference looking at Policy, Power and Sectarian Identities in the MENA Region, and Nouar Shamout and Glada Lahn assess the resource challenges for the Euphrates River in the wake of upheaval in Iraq and Syria. Also, Omar Ashour examines Egypt's Sinai crisis and its enduring insurgency.


The Queen Elizabeth II Academy is also now accepting applications for the Asfari and Turkey Fellowships. Applications are open until 31 May 2015.
