Amadeus Institute is a think tank and policy organization based in Morocco and founded by Brahim Fassi Fihri. The organization produces research and analysis on strategic issues concerning Morocco, North Africa and Middle East, the Mediterranean region, Africa and the South.
The Amadeus Institute is an independent Moroccan think tank, founded in 2008 and based in Rabat. It came to life in order to contribute to the Moroccan and Maghreban public debate. It also acts as the Voice of the South to communicate its vision and concerns at the global level.
The Amadeus institute has a double role: analysis and creating debates. It operates as a laboratory of ideas and a unique creator of debates. It is at the same time a centre of reflection, dialogue proposition and consultancy, but also a platform of exchanges, meetings and North-South and South-South cooperation.
