The Fanack websites offers an unprecedented collection of free independent sources of information for those seeking a better understanding, new insights in and knowledge of the region. Its regional contributors (acclaimed academics and journalist) aim to present impartial comprehensive information from a local, regional and international perspective, looking beyond conventional topics such as security threats.

The Fanack regional academics and journalist contributors are being kept anonymous to ensure the impartial comprehensive information on its websites.
