The Emirates-Aspen Partnership is a high-level strategic partnership between the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Washington, DC and The Aspen Institute’s Middle East Programs. The objective of this partnership is to develop an established dialogue that will cultivate seasoned relationships between civic, business, and government leaders in the US, the UAE, and the broader Middle East.

The themes shaping the priorities for the program’s activities in 2011-2012 include innovation, education and human capital development, as well as deepening relationships between the US and UAE and across the region.
