NAVIGATING THE EU – GCC FUTURE
RELATIONSHIPS

BUSSOLA

We focus on a combination of rigorous and independent research and
strategic outreach.

We organize and host regular events, including workshops, seminars,
symposiums, conferences, round tables and exhibitions, dedicated to
advancing better understanding and cooperation between Europe
and the Middle East.

Our research is developed through a policy network of talented
practitioners and academics, in close partnership with other leading
international organisations, to produce high-quality, evidence-based,
innovative research and analysis that will lead to new ideas for solving
problems facing the EU, the GCC region and global society generally.

VISION

To be the premier European Source of Understanding the GCC countries.

MISSION

Generate and share knowledge that will deepen relations between GCC
and European Countries through research and action.

OBJECTIVES

Provide a platform for independent, research, dialogue and knowledge
transfer between the Gulf Countries and Europe through research,
analytical studies and cultural engagement activities.

Dr Mary McAleese, Former President of the Republic of Ireland,
addresses the world during the Bussola Institute's webinar on
the "Values that Bind Us" entitled "Prayer in a Time of Crisis -
Solidarity through Faith". Dr McAleese captures the essence of
the entire webinar event by reminding us of the importance of
tolerance as the "vaccine" to combat intolerance.
