About

The Critical Security Studies Hub at the #IAS_NUQ is a partnership between the Institute and the Arab Council for Social Sciences (ACSS). It emerges as an initiative of the ACSS Critical Security Studies working group to create hubs of activity around the region to promote scholarship on critical security that is embedded in the experiences of the region. The ACSS Qatar hub brings together scholars from around Qatar to think together and develop scholarship and programming that will advance our thinking around questions of (in)security. The ACSS Qatar hub in partnership with #IAS_NUQ looks forward to collaborating and partnering with scholars and organizations in and around the region, as well as further away across the global south, to promote critical scholarship that values solidarity across the global south and intervenes in key debates and struggles impacting the Arab region. The hub plans to publish in a range of formats to reach a wide audience and create an impact in the way people and policymakers think of (in)security in the region.
