Gulf Research Center
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Gulf Research Center (GRC) is an independent research institute located in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE). The GRC was founded in July 2000 by Mr. Abdulaziz Sager, a Saudi businessman, who realized, in a world of rapid political, social and economic change, the importance of pursuing politically neutral and academically sound research about the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries and disseminating the knowledge obtained as widely as possible. The GRC seeks to provide a better understanding of the challenges and prospects of the GCC countries. One of GRC's main activities is the study of social science in a Gulf region context. The Center is particularly concerned with the international relations and politics of the GCC states.
