THE Awards MENA is the third in our series of events celebrating the very best stories in higher education – stories that rankings do not capture.

This is an exciting opportunity for us and for a region that is among the most vibrant and dynamic in the world. Higher education in the MENA countries is populated by highly motivated and enthusiastic people whose efforts are driven by a desire to serve the region and the wider world. These qualities align perfectly with our aim of identifying and promoting inspirational work taking place at higher education institutions whatever their size or focus, and wherever they may be located.
