The Greater Middle East Platform (GMOP) is a foundation that brings together a wide range of Dutch Middle East experts. It offers knowledge and expertise about the Middle East to the general public in the Netherlands, as well as to professionals and policy makers. We are experts in a wide range of fields, and we see a painful lack of objectivity and understanding in Western discourse when it comes to the Arab world and Muslims. The Middle East and North Africa are Europe’s direct neighbours, and we share many concerns and challenges. We at the GMOP work towards neutralizing and humanizing the framing and perceptions of the MENA region, and to increase the level of knowledge in our country. We do this because we want our national policies, and the general interaction between our countries, to be based on knowledge and understanding rather than fear.
