Formation of the Fellows Programme- An Evening in the Forward Thinking Office, 21 October 2024

On 21 October, we hosted an evening for new members of our Fellows Programme, who are eager to support and engage with our work.

We explored how different theories of conflict have informed Forward Thinking’s approach to conflict resolution, and highlighted the goals and vision behind our Middle East Programme, the Women for a Sustainable Future network, and our UK Programme.

Through conferences, seminars, and online discussions—many organised by our team with members of our network—fellows will expand their understanding of the socio-political and cultural dynamics of the Gulf-MENA region, the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the shared challenges women face in the region and Europe, and the barriers to social inclusion faced by British Muslim communities.
