About Us

The Greater Middle East Platform’s mission is to differentiate and humanise the image of the Middle East and North Africa. From an independent position and with an inquisitive eye, we aim to contribute to sustainable connections between Europe and the Middle East. To this end, The Greater Middle East Platform offers knowledge and stories for everyone who is interested in the backgrounds of the news, in people and cultures, and in building connections. The Platform is also intended for people who want to share specific knowledge and stories about the wider region from Morocco to Iran.

We publish in Dutch since our target audience is the Dutch public.

The Greater Middle East Platform is an independent foundation. The board of the foundation is ultimately responsible for the activities of the foundation, the finances and the policy. The board plays an important role in vision formation and the development and maintenance of a network with other organizations and clients.
