The purpose of the Institute is to undertake applied research and policy analysis on structural changes affecting the developing and transitional economics, to provide a forum for the advocacy of polices leading to robust, equitable, and environmentally sustainable growth, and to promote capacity strengthening and training in the field of economic and social policy-making. Its work is carried out by staff researchers and visiting scholars in Helsinki and through networks of collaborating scholars and institutions around the world.
