Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment, and Security
The Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment, and Security is an independent, non-profit center created in 1987 to conduct research and policy analysis in the areas of environment, sustainable development, and international security. Underlying all of the Institute's work is the recognition that the pressing problems of environmental degradation, regional and global poverty, and political tension and conflict are fundamentally interrelated, and that long-term solutions require an interdisciplinary perspective. The Institute strives to improve policy through sound research and consistent dialogue with action-oriented groups from the international to local level. The Institute has three broad goals: To conduct policy-relevant research on the nexus of; international security, environment change, and economic/social development; To collaborate on complementary research efforts with other organizations and individuals; To actively work on developing solutions with policymakers, activists and the general public.
