UNU-CPR was established in 2014 as an independent think tank within the UN system. Over the past decade the Centre has carried out policy-focused research on issues of strategic interest and importance to the UN and its Member States, and is now a hub for policy innovation - prioritizing urgent policy needs that require innovative, practical solutions oriented toward immediate implementation and sustainability over the long term.
This webpage celebrates the Centre's achievements and outputs and will evolve during the course of this year to reflect activities and events related to UNU-CPR's anniversary and the Centre's future plans as we continue to anticipate new and emerging challenges.
