Goals / Remit
GLOBSEC is an independent, non-partisan, non-governmental organisation that builds on the successful work done by the Slovak Atlantic Commission (est.1993). Its main goal is to shape the global debate through conducting research activities and connecting key experts on foreign and security policy.
To this goal contributes the annual GLOBSEC Bratislava Global Security Forum, one of the top conferences on global security in the world. GLOBSEC also organises the annual GLOBSEC TATRA SUMMIT, a conference that provides the ground for fruitful expert and political discussions on the future of Europe.
Research fellows from GLOBSEC Policy Institute publish regular analyses, policy papers and publications responding to some of the most current challenges. Activities within this think tank are devoted to research in four programmes: Defence & Security Programme, Energy Programme, Future of Europe Programme and European Neighbourhood Programme.
Committed to support young talents, GLOBSEC Academy Centre was established to identify exceptional young individuals and aims to educate them to become excellent analysts of tomorrow.
GLOBSEC Policy Institute is a regional think-tank based in Bratislava, Slovakia. Its main objective is to help decision-makers and opinion-makers in Central Europe - and in V4 countries in particular - to craft common responses to current challenges and strengthen their voice in EU and NATO debates. By engaging the region’s top experts and institutions, GLOBSEC Policy Institute produces publications and undertakes advocacy activities that cover and highlight topics of security and defence, Central Europe and EU’s Eastern and South-Eastern neighbourhood. From regular face-to-face meetings with key decision-makers to roundtables with government professionals and briefings for expert communities, GLOBSEC Policy Institute continuously works on building wider support behind its recommendations and drives domestic debates on relevant foreign policy and security issues.
The backbone of GLOBSEC Policy Institute’s activities is well-argued and highly readable publications, with political impact and innovative suggestions. Small teams of the region’s best minds draft policy recommendations on selected key issues on the EU’s and NATO’s agenda.

Small teams of the region’s best minds draft policy recommendations on selected key issues on the EU’s and NATO’s agenda. GLOBSEC Policy Institute has a team of in-house experts on issues such as defence co-operation and the enlargement process to Western Balkans, though much of its work is done in partnership with outside experts from governments, international institutions and other think-tanks.
In order to have a say at international and domestic scene both, products must be understandable to the general public and useful to decision-makers. For that reason, publications must include specific recommendations with realistic timelines.
GLOBSEC Policy Institute spends as much time on advocacy as on writing. Busy decision-makers need more than a well-written product to acknowledge the importance of issues which they may have previously neglected. Often a personal meeting with a tailored message makes all the difference. Spends as much time on advocacy as on writing.
