AMIDEAST’s 2008 annual report is dedicated to the stories of individuals whose lives have been transformed through their participation in the multiple programs administered by AMIDEAST in the Middle East and North Africa. We believe that these stories illustrate more than anything else the powerful impact of the high quality education and training opportunities that AMIDEAST is able to provide to those we serve in the United States and through our 23 field and program offices in 13 countries throughout the region.
By assisting individuals, institutions, and communities to better reach their potential through expanded educational and training opportunities, AMIDEAST is helping to bridge the skills gap in the MENA region, laying the bricks and mortar required for successful development and expanding openness to America and the broader world.
AMIDEAST is proud to share the highlights of its work during 2008 and thank you for your continued friendship and support.
