Our mission is to guide and drive excellence in architecture in the region. We cover seven Gulf countries, including the United Arab Emirates, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Sultanate of Oman and Jordan. We provide support to our Members across the Gulf. Our office is based in Sharjah, UAE and we have an established Gulf chapter for 15 years now and is managed by our local members. The chapter and gulf office works together to provide a range of activities for members and non-members, including events, discussion forums and networking opportunities. Through a wide range of activities in major cities such as Dubai and Saudi Arabia, we support the delivery of the RIBA's vision to champion better buildings, communities and the environment through architecture and our members.
