We are conducting an examination of Israel's national emergency system, with a particular focus on its civilian dimensions. This includes an analysis of the different stages: from various preparedness scenarios and plans to actual responses in times of crisis/emergency, including ongoing issues related to rehabilitation and the institutionalization of processes, organizations, and relevant legal infrastructure. Special emphasis is being placed on the lessons learned from the "Iron Swords" war, alongside a comparative view of other crisis events in Israel and emergency systems in other countries. These serve as the foundation for comprehensive and long-term planning of this system in Israel, encompassing its various dimensions.

As part of the project, we are working to promote policy research focused on the emerging regional arena in the Middle East (in its broad definition), with an emphasis (but not limited to) o the interactions between security, economy, politics, religion, cultural identity, climate, and population, in relation to developments in energy, infrastructure, and innovative technologies (including traditional technologies, breakthrough technologies, and disruptive technologies). The research will focus on the long-term implications and effects on Israel's policy, both in the lead-up to and following the potential establishment of new international arrangements in the Middle East. 

Such as, cyber and the regional digital space, green energy, the regional space domain, and regional ballistic missile defense.
