MBI Al Jaber Foundation - Forging Links Through Education

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation supports projects that promote better understanding between the peoples of the Middle East and the wider world, especially in Europe but also with the United States and elsewhere.

Our focus is on educational and cultural projects, and we concentrate on forging partnerships rather than simply giving grants. We have a long-standing scholarship programme, with an Alumni body which reaches from Yemen to Morocco.

MBI Al Jaber Foundation

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation was born from Mohamed Bin Issa Al Jabers' desire to promote better understanding between the peoples of the Middle East and the wider world, especially in Europe but also with the USA and elsewhere.

We believe that better understanding will be achieved through education and an awareness of and respect for each others’ cultures.
