The panelists will be:
- Elham Fakhro, Research Associate, Chatham House MENA program; Research Fellow, Exeter University
- Hussein Ibish, Senior Resident Scholar, Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington;
- Daniel C. Kurtzer, S. Daniel Abraham Professor of Middle East Policy Studies, Princeton University;

- Moderator: Cristina Gallach, Former UN Under-Secretary General, and Former Spanish State-Secretary for Foreign Affairs
The full program of the series is listed at the bottom of the invitation. Links to register to the following webinars will be provided in the upcoming weeks.
Borne out of a shared need for in-depth information on Middle East politics, the war between Israel and Hamas, and the broader history of the region, the Scholars in dialogue series features internationally renowned and highly informed academics and experts across multiple disciplines and perspectives. Moderated by a diverse roster of experienced journalists, each conversation will reflect multiple positions with sensitivity and understanding.
