Addressing Challenges in the Middle East: Assessing the Organisational Soundness of International Research Collaborations

Abstract

International collaboration in unstable circumstances within the scholarly community is prone to increased instability, concerns associated to guilt, and inadequate support.In order for these coalitions to remain politically and financially sustainable in the long term, it is imperative to engage stakeholders at many levels, both locally and globally. This holds true irrespective of the scale of the coalitions under consideration.This study investigates the role of complicated stakeholder arrangements in a worldwide academic health science network in promoting peace initiatives in the Middle East.The organisational structures involved in this partnership are being adjusted to more effectively align with the structural, intellectual, and political needs of various international support organisations. However, the credibility of international research and its contribution to peacebuilding has not been undermined.This study investigates the methods of reconciliation employed by cooperative health researchers to mitigate organisational instability, address imbalances in resources, and consistently establish and repair connections across different stakeholder groups.
