The Global “Go-To Think Tanks”: The Leading Public Policy Research Organizations in the World
The publication of this report represents the culmination of a process that takes approximately 8 months to complete and involves the support of think tanks and experts from every region of the world. These rankings are conducted without the benefit
of a full time staff or budget and are made possible with the assistance of a group of research interns from the University of Pennsylvania and other colleges in the area.
The Global “Go-To Think Tanks”: The Leading Public Policy Research Organizations in the World, 2010
A snapshot of the peer institutions and experts who participated in the process is provided below:
- 250 nominated expert panelists
- 150 journalists and scholars who cover politics, think tanks and civil society
- 30 current and former directors of think tank programs and networks
- 40 public and private donors
- 63 civil society representatives
- 100s of think tanks
- 25-30 intergovernmental organizations
- 80 academic institution
We believe our system of ranking the top think tanks using a shared definition of public policy
research, analysis and engagement organizations, a detailed set of selection criteria and an open
and transparent nomination and selection process has tremendous utility for think tanks,
policymakers, donors and the public. We are particularly pleased by the increased participation
from developing countries which allows us to bring special attention to the important work they are
doing under often very difficult circumstances.
