A discussion exploring what has changed since the erupt of the 2011 uprisings, and its impact on future political change in the MENA region
About this Event
While the Arab Spring is far from over, as the uprisings in Sudan, Algeria, Iraq, and Lebanon have shown, both activists and researchers would agree that much has changed since the Arab Spring began in 2011. The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has witnessed far-reaching transformations over the last 10 years when it comes to socio-economic conditions, religion-state relations, and the agendas of international organizations operating in the region.
Join CERC Migration, the GREASE Project, and the University of Bristol as they co-host a panel of experts who will discuss what has changed since the eruption of the 2011 uprisings, and how these transformations are likely to impact future political change in the MENA region.
