Equipping leaders and governments for a global future.
By shaping the debate and offering expert advice, we aim to help political leaders build open, inclusive and prosperous societies in an increasingly interconnected world.
Policy Futures
From populist leadership to public protest, our current political landscape is marked by extremism, with ‘us’ and ‘them’ attitudes pervading debate on a global basis. Alongside this, we’re living in an unprecedented era of technological progression; one that offers renewed prosperity and connection, but which also presents challenges that threaten further division.
Our work is necessarily bold, but it’s practical too, shaping the debate, and offering a programme that is both radical and realistic: fully cognisant of the modern world and its present direction, and of the size of steps necessary to achieve the change we want to see.
Government Advisory
The single most important determinate of a country’s success is the quality of its leader and government. As a first step, that means things as basic as ensuring the existence of elections, and an absence of corruption. But beyond that, it requires enabling the effective delivery of real reform; reform that raises living standards and provides a stable basis for sustainable progress in an ever-changing world.
Our strength lies in our experience and expertise, and our global perspective. Through Tony Blair, and our panel of experts, we’re able to offer unique insight, as well peer-to-peer practical support, to leaders and governments keen and ready to implement this kind of change.
The Sendai Framework Voluntary Commitments (SFVC) online platform allows stakeholders to inform the public about their work on DRR. The SFVC online platform is a useful toolto know who is doing what and where for the implementation of the Sendai Framework, which could foster potential collaboration among stakeholders. All stakeholders (private sector, civil society organizations, academia, media, local governments, etc.) working on DRR can submit their commitments and report on their progress and deliverables.
