BCSP Remains on the List of Top Think Tanks in the World in 3 Categories
For the ninth consecutive year, BCSP was recognized among the best think tanks in the world on the research topics of defence and national security, and foreign policy and international relations.
University of Pennsylvania (USA) traditionally publishes the Global Go To Think Tank Index Report – the most comprehensive list of leading think-tanks from around the world every year.
In 2020 BCSP is ranked as:
- 16th on the list of Top Think Tanks in Central and Eastern Europe,
- 56th on the list of Top Think Tanks by Area of Research Defence and National Security, while first on the list from the region, and
- 60th on the list of Top Think Tanks by Area of Research Foreign Policy and International Affairs, while first on the list from the region.
A small number of think-tanks per category get to be nominated each year, especially from the Western Balkans, which makes the nomination an achievement in itself, and we congratulate all of our colleagues from Serbia and the region that made it into this year’s list.
Global Go-To-Think Tank Index is the response of the Think Tanks and Civil Societies Program at University of Pennsylvania (USA) to numerous demands from policymakers, journalists, public and private donors to have a list of most prominent national, regional and international research centres. In the process of nominating and ranking, besides think tanks, participated representatives of universities, institutes, government, non-government, international and donor organizations, and independent experts and journalists.
