CRD is a significant player in shaping policies based on rigorous research, spanning multiple levels of government and organizational structures.

We work closely with government ministries to offer insights and evidence-based recommendations, bridging research and policy to tackle societal issues in the MENA region. CRD’s involvement continues past policy formulation to include impact analysis and evaluation to refine policies for better social outcomes. We work to bolster public systems, collaborating with state ministries to enhance service provision. As a liaison between state and international bodies, CRD facilitates knowledge exchange and capacity building. Our dedication to effective policy development is driven by the belief that such policies can fundamentally improve societies, fostering inclusivity and bettering lives in the MENA region and wider contexts.
