The Oxford Institute for Energy Studies (OIES) and KFAS have partnered to bring together staff from the institute and an associate network of researchers in Kuwait to perform in-depth research on key topics. The program also aims to make the research findings accessible to a wide audience to foster discussion and debate within Kuwait and the Gulf region. The program also offers capacity-building opportunities bringing together OIES and Kuwaiti research institutions as well as opportunities for visiting fellowships for Kuwaiti academics.

The KFAS-OIES program provides support for the following:

• The publication of The Oxford Energy Forum (OEF) and a number of specific program studies during the academic year.
• The roundtable OIES-KFAS workshop focusing on key energy-related challenges faced by Gulf Cooperation Council countries.
• OIES hosts Short-Term Visiting Research Fellowships for Kuwaiti researchers conducting work on a relevant topic.
• The program also sponsors Kuwaiti participants to attend the Oxford Energy Seminar.
