CAR T-cell therapy is transforming cancer care by using a patient's own immune cells to fight cancer, offering new hope for people with certain blood cancers and rare diseases. However, access remains limited due to the complexity and cost of producing this life-changing therapy.
Through the MILenARI (Mediterranean International Lentivirus ARI) project, partners including the American University of Beirut, King Hussein Cancer Center, Bambino Gesù Children's Hospital, and FRCB-IDIBAPS are collaborating, with funding from the European Union through the Interreg NEXT MED Programme, to strengthen regional production capabilities and expand access to this innovative therapy across the Mediterranean.
By building local expertise and decentralizing production in Italy, Lebanon, and Jordan, MILenARI aims to make advanced cancer treatments more accessible, bringing hope closer to the patients who need it most.
This video is part of the AUB Office of Research's campaign highlighting the recipients of the 2025 Interreg NEXT MED awards.

🇦🇪On July 1-2, the Women, Peace, and Security (WPS) Regional Hub at IFI, in partnership with @AGDAUAE, Conciliation Resources, the Mediation for Peace Centre at the Finnish Ministry for Foreign Affairs @Ulkoministerio, and @unwomenarabic convened a two-day workshop in #AbuDhabi, gathering mediators from the Gulf and Europe to explore ways to integrate gender perspectives into mediation for peace in contemporary conflict settings.

IFI's Assistant Director @mouradyara7 facilitated a dedicated session exploring how social and cultural approaches in the Gulf and the wider Arab region can support gender inclusion in mediation, while also highlighting the barriers that can limit women's meaningful participation.

This dialogue marks the first of two exchanges aimed at advancing gender-inclusive peace mediation across the region.
