MBI Al Jaber Foundation

The MBI Al Jaber Foundation was born from Sheikh 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.
