The Arab Spring brought about lasting transformations across the Middle East, radically altering the political and socio-economic fabric of the region.
To mark the 10th anniversary of this momentous series of uprising, the Institute of Middle Eastern Studies and School of Security Studies at King’s College London, hosted an event that takes a closer look at the legacy of one of the biggest social and political movements ever experienced in the region.
Chaired by Sir Mark Lyall Grant, who was the UK ambassador to the United Nations during the Arab Spring, the roundtable includes Professor Jeroen Gunning (KCL), Dr Fatima el-Issawi (KCL/LSE/Essex), Dr Shiraz Maher (KCL), Dr Nina Musgrave (KCL), and Dr Andreas Krieg (KCL), join a discussion marking a decade of change, looking at the past and present of the revolutions in different regions of the Middle East, as well as what might lie in store over the next decade.
**Please note due to technical difficulties, the event was briefly disrupted, causing a break in the video around 10 minutes in.**
