The Brookings Doha Center (BDC) was established in 2007 as an international research institution under the auspices of the Brookings Institution, a prominent think tank based in Washington, D.C. It aimed to provide high-quality, independent policy research and analysis on the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. However, in September 2021, after 14 years of collaboration, the BDC disaffiliated from the Brookings Institution and rebranded itself as the Middle East Council on Global Affairs, marking a significant transition in its operational framework and objectives.<ref>Brookings Institution.
