SESAME (Synchrotron Light for Experimental Science and Applications in the Middle East, www.sesame.org.jo) is being built in Jordan under the umbrella of UNESCO as an international synchrotron radiation source. Scientists from the members (Jordan, Israel, Egypt, Turkey, Bahrain, Pakistan and the Palestinian Authority) and observer countries (Iran, France, Germany, Greece, Kuwait, Russia, USA, UK) have been meeting annually since 2002 with the aim of presenting their work in the field, discussing the latest developments in the project and spreading the word about SESAME and strengthening contacts in the SESAME users' community. The first Users Meeting was held in Amman, Jordan, in 2002 with the generous help of the Japanese Society for Physical Sciences.
