Please note that the MENA centre is currently inactive. You can still reach us, but we are not organizing events.
Established by a team of researchers across several departments in the Faculty of Arts, the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) Studies Centre at Toronto Metropolitan University is devoted to the culture, history, literature, politics, and societies in the Middle East and North Africa and of diasporic populations from the MENA region in North America and Europe.
Our Goals
The MENA Studies Centre embraces interdisciplinary research and teaching within the Faculty of Arts and across other faculties at TMU, as well as beyond TMU, and will actively seek partnerships with the broader community. Our goal is to open up new perspectives on the MENA region and its interdependence with other world cultures.
