The Integra & Co Initiative:
Shaping the Future of MENA and Sub-Saharan Africa
The MEA Institute for Strategic Studies stands as a leading, youth-led think tank focused on the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and Sub-Saharan Africa. With a firm commitment to impact and integrity, we operate independently under the parent company, Integra & Co, producing essential, impartial insights that contribute to policy-making, economic development, and social stability across these critical regions.
A Think Tank with Purpose
The MEA Institute is a hub for expert research, strategic analysis, and public engagement. We specialise in geopolitical risk, economic forecasts, and sociopolitical trends, bringing clarity to complex issues and linking regional dynamics to global impacts, with expertise crafted by locals for locals and beyond. Our mission is to empower stakeholders, governments, businesses, and civil society—through informed guidance that addresses the immediate and long-term challenges facing the Middle East and Africa.
Our Role in the Region
Each month, the MEA Institute publishes in-depth research, providing nuanced analysis of pressing issues across the region. Our insights are crafted by a network of analysts based throughout the continent, ensuring our reports are timely, relevant, and actionable.
