Carnegie Endowment for International Peace: A prominent Washington, D.C.-headquartered non-profit international affairs think tank, the Carnegie Endowment is dedicated to advancing global peace and cooperation. Founded in 1910 by Andrew Carnegie, it operates as a global network of policy research centres across Europe, Asia, and the Middle East. Its main activities involve independent analysis, research, and policy recommendations on critical international issues such as nuclear policy, democracy, climate, and technology. Recognised as the first truly global think tank, it significantly contributes to shaping international discourse and informing decision-makers.
