Emmett Imani
As Guardian of the House of Afshar and an Ambassador of Peace affiliated with the UNESCO Center for Peace, much of my work revolves around cultural diplomacy, strategic analysis, conflict management, and preserving historical and civilizational heritage in a rapidly shifting geopolitical environment. My research and writing focus on Iranian and Turkish history, geopolitics, international security, diplomacy, and global governance. Over the years, I have worked at the intersection of geopolitics, international security, historical memory, and global governance, with a particular focus on the Middle East, Eurasia, the South Caucasus, and emerging multipolar power structures. Alongside geopolitical analysis and publishing, I have experience in media, organizational leadership, international communications, and business development. I also work across multilingual and cross-cultural environments including English, Persian, Turkish, and Azeri contexts.
