About us

Our mission

Abhaseed Foundation Fund (AFF) is in essence a seed fund and our purpose is to establish the first Polish MENA-focused think-tank.

The think-tank, once created, will serve as a platform for independent, objective, nonpartisan research on the many issues facing our nation in regard to the developments in the Middle East and North Africa region.

Through this we hope to foster the dialogue and cooperation between institutions, people, and business environments in Poland and their peers from MENA.

Our vision

Providing the indispensable organizational, functional and financial seedbed for framing MENA policy debates to shape a better future for Poland and MENA countries.

Our offer and partner institutions

Our key research partner is the Malian Centre d’Analyse sur la Gouvernance et la Sécurité au Sahel (CAGS) / ONG Éveil.

We offer methodological trainings in the field of open source investigations, including HUMINT, and we also advise on shaping the personnel and organizational structure of such a unit together with an appropriate workflow.

We collaborate also with:

MIDEB – Międzynarodowy Instytut Działań i Edukacji na rzecz Bezpieczeństwa
