Arab Reform Initiative (ARI) is a collaborative think tank that aims to promote democratic change in the Arab region. Established in 2004, ARI brings together policy research centers from ten Arab countries, four European think tanks, and one from the United States to set the agenda for political and social reforms. With 20 peer partners across the region, ARI acts as a valuable resource for exclusive knowledge on governments and societies in the Arab region.

ARI is committed to fostering vibrant democratic societies in Arab countries and operates on the principles of impartiality, gender equality, and diversity. Their focus areas have grown to encompass social justice issues, political economy, and pressing environmental concerns. ARI conducts research, policy analysis, and policy dialogues while providing a platform for inspirational voices.

With a vision to become the leading regional hub for progressive ideas, ARI supports inclusive democracy, full and equal citizenship, social justice, and environmental justice. Through their work, ARI strives to bring about positive and sustainable change in the Arab region
