Cooperation

Regional and International Cooperation

Examining complex issues from different perspectives and encouraging constructive discussion between people and institutions with relevant expertise.

Working together

The exchange of knowledge and perspectives

International cooperation is an important area of engagement for research organizations studying complex geopolitical and security issues. The Caucasus is influenced by relationships that extend across national borders, making the exchange of knowledge and perspectives relevant to understanding regional developments.

The value of cooperation lies in the opportunity to examine complex issues from different perspectives, improve understanding of regional contexts, and encourage constructive discussion between people and institutions with relevant expertise.

Caucasus Research Center is particularly interested in professional dialogue that contributes to a more comprehensive understanding of the Caucasus and its international environment. Cooperation should be based on clear objectives, mutual understanding, and an appropriate definition of the scope and responsibilities of participating parties.

The Center's institutional locations in Latvia and Turkey form part of its organizational framework. Its research focus, however, extends to the Caucasus and the broader regional and international relationships relevant to its areas of interest.
