Our Approach

We harness the best practices of global affairs and education and integrate the principles of modern product design to craft intuitive learning platforms that deliver substantive, accessible content.

Our Products

We create platforms that are adaptable for all stages of an educational journey. They act as both a reservoir of knowledge and a toolkit to maintain and deepen expertise.

Who We Are

We are a diverse group from the political analysis, diplomatic, business, and media communities, including veteran political analysts, passionate startup entrepreneurs, talented UI/UX and graphic designers, established educators, and experienced marketing professionals.

Our Values

  • We are committed to curating and delivering the most reliable and relevant information about countries and their geopolitical landscapes. Our experts work tirelessly to provide you with comprehensive insight into the political landscape of countries.

  • We believe in making global affairs knowledge more accessible to all, where accessible means both available to you and easy to access and use. Whether you're a seasoned diplomat, a curious student, or a concerned citizen, you'll find resources tailored to your needs.

  • We are dedicated to upholding the principles of transparency, integrity, and independence. We welcome donations exclusively from those who share a commitment to non-interference with the Institute’s work. Our research priorities and content decisions are insulated from donor influence, and we are committed to preserving the independence of all research staff.

  • We champion global affairs experts, many of whom have devoted their lives to remaining at the forefront of their respective fields. They invest countless hours, often without compensation, engaging with people on the ground, closely tracking recent events, and delving deep into the intricacies of their specialties. We are committed to paying fair compensation for their invaluable knowledge and insights. Your donations and subscriptions make that commitment possible.

With your investment, you will inform decision-making, champion expertise, enhance global journalism, and cultivate the leaders of tomorrow.

Make a lasting impact on global affairs literacy.
