We conduct research to improve lives and livelihoods shaped by violent conflict, fragility and humanitarian emergencies.
ISDC – International Security and Development Center is a non-profit academic institute based in Berlin, Germany. We conduct research to improve lives and livelihoods shaped by violent conflict, fragility and humanitarian emergencies. OUR APPROACH We collect and analyse data, derive evidence-based policy advice and build capacity. We draw on theory, data, and statistics to inform policies that are evidence-based, ethical, equitable and effective. We focus our analysis at the micro level, studying how individuals, households, groups and firms react to and cope with extreme adversity – and how policies can best support people and institutions under such conditions. We combine quantitative and qualitative methods and work with international partners from multiple disciplines and sectors. OUR PARTNERSHIPS While based in Berlin, the global relevance of our work leads us to engage in research and advisory projects around the world. The quality of our research and impact is critically shaped by engaging with strong partners in the countries where we work, including national and local governments, non-governmental organizations and civil society organisations, and international organizations. We enjoy collaborating with researchers from around the world, exchanging ideas and experiences. It is through our partners that we are able to study human behavior and policy impacts in challenging contexts defined by low levels of stability, development and statistical capacity. Bringing together expertise from academic, policy and practice, we support policy-makers, practitioners and other stakeholders to develop, test and implement evidence-based policies and programs for stability and development.
