Middle East Policy Initiative

The American Strategy Program has launched the Middle East Policy Initiative, which seeks to inform and deepen the debate on American policy towards the Middle East both here in Washington and across the United States. Our task is to advance sensible debate and offer strategic solutions for resolving long-running conflicts in the Middle East, and core among them the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Within the American Strategy Program, this initiative will seek to draw on the moderate debate from a region of increasing importance to America’s strategic interests and to international peace and security, through dialogue, policy research, events and media that target practitioners, policy makers, opinion leaders, the American public, and the international community. Working closely with partner institutions in the United States and abroad, the initiative is laying the groundwork for stability, security, and eventually a sustainable peace that serves U.S., Israeli, Palestinian and global interests.

Headed by Daniel Levy, the Middle East Policy Initiative is sponsored jointly by the New America Foundation and The Century Foundation.
