Contains films, videos and audio materials.

The collection documents the Near East Foundation (1930-2003, bulk 1940s-1980s), focusing on its international development and technical assistance programs at the country and local community levels. Its focus on developing problem-solving civil society organizations, international relations, vocational training and sustainable international development, compliments many of the RAC collections, and tells an important philanthropic story of a region of the world not particularly well represented by other RAC holdings.

Primarily includes: "The Near East" (1920s), newsletters, other articles, as well as NEF Dockets, 1990-1997.

Records primarily include photographs, audio, and an oral history.

This record group primarily consists of dockets, minutes and reports of Near East Relief (NER) and the Near East Foundation (NEF). Materials pertaining to Near East Relief date from 1915 to roughly 1932, while materials pertaining to the Near East Foundation date from roughly 1932 to 2005. A majority of the materials were generated by and for New York-based personnel, and document executive-level decision making. However, information on day-to-day foreign operations can be found in the dockets, which include reports that reference foundation-operated orphanages and schools. Those interested in visual sources can look to the issues of the "New Near East" newletter, 1922 to 1924, and the "Bulletin of the Near East Society", 1952-1955.
