The Middle East Distinguished Visiting Scholar Initiative responds to an urgent institutional and global need: to foster rigorous, balanced, and humane scholarship and dialogue on the Middle East at a moment of profound political violence, polarization, and misinformation. Through semester-long residencies, the initiative ensures that students and the broader Penn community engage on the urgent challenges facing the Middle East through rigorous scholarship and the first-hand perspectives of leading experts.
