Kurdistan as a Strategic Actor in the Middle East
A strategic seminar on the changing Middle East and Kurdistan’s evolving role within the regional order.
Event Overview
Connecting ideas, people, and action.
This strategic seminar examines how the Middle East is being reshaped by geopolitical realignment, economic recalibration, and a growing shift toward multi-layered regional influence. For Kurdistan, these changes create both risks and historic openings.
