LitTalks: A New Middle East After Trump? |
||
| The fraught relationship between the U.S. and the Middle East raises critical questions for human rights.
During our LitTalk we discussed the interconnectedness of human rights, policy-making, governance, and civil society in the Middle East and North Africa, and the implications for funders, movements, and political actors. Philanthropy must step up, be bolder, and provide funding to local human rights organizations based on their own agendas and priorities.
