Think Tanks in Kuwait

Rai Institute

RAI Institute is a private, independent, institute and think tank for research and strategic studies that is dedicated to providing new insights through fact-based research and analysis. Founded in January 2014, our institute is committed to strengthening democratic institutions, promoting sustainable economic policy, and advancing civil society in Kuwait and the region. Our goal is to create and support constructive discourse on the key issues that face Kuwait by providing objective insights on past, current and forecasted future challenges and to inform policy makers on optimal solutions. Our institute produces timely, impartial, and independent research and analysis, by collaborating with domain experts and thought leaders in the academic, political and business communities. RAI Institute advocates for reform in the political, economic and social spheres through the production of rigorous analysis of national issues, the publication of articles, and by providing an independent forum in which decision-makers and interested individuals alike can interact in an open environment. Our think tank aims to become an essential source of data, information, and intelligence for its members and partners, as well as key decision makers, governmental and parliamentary officials, and members of the general public.

Fikar - Failaka Institute For Knowledge And Arts Research

The Failaka Institute for Knowledge and Arts Research (FIKAR) is a non-profit organization that operates as a think thank and artistic production platform to usher new narratives, forms of research and expressions, and experiments in response to contemporary global issues. The epicenter of FIKAR is the island of Failaka as it provides a unique laboratory to observe at a micro-level the consequences of climate change and the fallout of late-stage capitalism. Paradoxically, the island’s current state of inertia, combined with its incredibly rich history, mythologies, and relative autarky, allows to incubate practices of artistic and intellectual production conditioned by ephemerality, fragility, and transition. Currently, Dar FIKAR is the main site of research and creation; in the coming years, FIKAR will expand through the creation of permanent and ephemeral hubs in collaborations with kindred partners. FIKAR works across geographies and disciplines with leading artists, scientists, cultural organizations and academic institutions.
