Goals / Remit
The Brookings Institution (Brookings) is a private, non-profit, independent public policy research organization. Brookings's mission is to conduct high-quality independent research that leads to new ideas for solving problems facing society at the local, national, and global level. For more than 90 years, Brookings has analyzed current and emerging issues and produced new ideas that matter - for the nation and the world. Research at Brookings is conducted to inform the public debate and provide high-quality, non-partisan analysis on the challenges facing an increasingly interdependent world.
Main EU files targeted
The Foreign Policy Program’s research helps stakeholders and the public understand and address the dynamics of world affairs and the challenges they pose to the international community. The aim is to support America’s foreign and national security policies, inform the public policy debate, and support the emerging international order in favor of peace, security, and human progress. The goal is to understand the dynamics of world affairs and the challenges they pose to the international community and to inform policies and institutions that promote sustainable peace, security, and prosperity around the world. In the past year, Foreign Policy experts both in Washington examined a range of topics including established and emerging powers; redefining security; the intersection of politics, economics and security; and adapting international institutions. The mission of the Center on the United States and Europe (CUSE) is to offer independent research for U.S. and European stakeholders, foster high-level U.S.-European dialogue on developments in Europe and global challenges, and convene seminars and public forums on relevant issues. The Center’s research program currently focuses on (1) institutional relations between the United States and the European Union; (2) bilateral relations between the United States and several key European states; and (3) transnational developments within and across the United States and Europe, including COVID-19, populism, China’s increasing role in Europe, and the role of technology in the transatlantic relationship.

Complementary Information
The number of persons at Brookings involved in monitoring and researching the activities of the EU varies across programs and from year to year, depending on the research priorities of the various programs, centers, and initiatives within the institution, and the research agendas of the individual scholars.
The Brookings Center on the United States and Europe (CUSE) has a mandate to foster high-level U.S.-European dialogue on the changes in Europe and the global challenges that affect transatlantic relations, and therefore is involved in the activities described above on a full-time, year-round basis. Other Brookings divisions, and their affiliated scholars and staff, take part in or monitor the work of EU structures and bodies on a part-time basis.Person in charge of EU relations
