The National Council on U.S.-Arab Relations (NCUSAR) is an American non-profit organization supporting education about the Arab world to Americans.
Background
Founded in 1983, NCUSAR is a non-profit organization that works with students and the public to increase knowledge and understanding of the Arab world. It is located in Washington, D.C.,[ clarification needed] where it convenes seminars with specialists in the field of Arab-U.S. relations. The public seminars cover issues related to politics, the economy, and humanitarian aid, such as U.S. policy in Yemen and the U.S.-Saudi diplomatic relationship. [1] [2]
The council is led by Dr. John Duke Anthony, staffed by professionals in the field of Arab politics.
