Center on International Cooperation (CIC)
Unverified non-profit organisation
The NYU Center on International Cooperation (CIC) works to enhance multilateral responses to global problems, including: conflict, humanitarian crises, and recovery; international security challenges, including weapons proliferation and the changing balance of power; and resource scarcity and climate change. Through innovative applied research and direct engagement with policy actors, CIC has been at the forefront of policy decision-making in each of its core areas of research. CIC’s programs and research activities focus on international security institutions, post-conflict peace building, and global peace operations, with particular emphasis on the UN and multilateral responses to conflict. Working with officials of government and intergovernmental agencies, as well as corporate and civil society leaders, the Center seeks to clarify the political, legal and institutional foundations of effective international cooperation, including the appropriateness and feasibility of alternative sources of financing.
