Established in 2006, the Al Jazeera Center for Studies is a think tank operating as an offshoot of the Al Jazeera Media Network. Through in-depth research and analysis focused on both regional and global current affairs, the center provides insight that not only serves Al Jazeera’s vast international operations, which span more than 140 countries, but also seeks to inform society at large.
As an extension of a multinational news media organization based in the Middle East, the Al Jazeera Center for Studies leverages its unique perspective on the region’s cultural and sociopolitical climate to focus primarily on geopolitical events in Arab regions. It seeks to provide timely information that promotes a global understanding of current events, drawing on the efforts of a global network of subject experts and research professionals. As the center brings together great minds from around the world, it aims to promote similar connections within the public, working toward mutual understanding and cooperation among cultures.
Since its inception, the Al Jazeera Center for Studies has developed a global reputation for providing accurate and timely research that upholds rigorous academic standards. For three years, the center ranked sixth among more than 500 organizations in the American University of Pennsylvania’s annual world index of research centers. In January 2016, the institution announced that the Al Jazeera Center had advanced to the fifth spot.
