IAMPE MENA REGION CONFERENCES

We are thrilled to announce the IAMPE “Cairo Conference on Diplomacy and Mediation in the MENA Region: From Ancient Wisdom to Future Diplomacy.”

This hybrid international conference will take place on 15 April 2026, beginning at 09:30 (Egypt time), bringing together participants from Egypt, the MENA region, the Caucasus, and the wider international diplomatic community.

The conference is proudly coordinated by IAMPE Honorary Member and Representative in Egypt, Judge Amgad Muhammed Ashraf Hammad, who will serve as the chief coordinator of the event.

This initiative aims to build a new diplomatic bridge between Egypt and the Caucasus, symbolically reviving the spirit of the historic Silk Road of dialogue, culture, and knowledge exchange. Through this platform, we reconnect the wisdom of ancient civilizations with the evolving practices of modern diplomacy and mediation.

From the heritage of Tutankhamun and the diplomatic legacy of Queen Cleopatra, to the leadership of Queen Tamar of Georgia, the legacy of the Bagrationi dynasty, and the pioneering role of Armenia’s first woman, Diana Abghar, the conference will symbolically unite these great cultures on a new bridge of mediation diplomacy.

Egypt may become the key to the gateway, while the Caucasus builds the bridge toward the future, where diplomacy, mediation, and cultural dialogue shape new paths for peaceful international cooperation.
