Our Research Centers

The Institute’s thought leadership is grounded in the efforts of its endowed research centers. These centers provide venues for our program participants and the general public to exchange ideas and expertise, discuss current issues, recommend policies, and propose action.

We established the centers to support activities such as public lectures, seminars, workshops, and conferences through the generosity of social investors who share the same mission and objectives as the centers.

These activities’ results have been translated into publications as discussion papers, policy papers, working papers, policy briefings, lecture proceedings, case studies, book chapters, and books.
