The Think Tanks and Civil Societies Program (TTCSP) has developed a series of initiatives that help bridge the gap between knowledge and policy in critical areas. These international cooperation efforts aim to form a global network of policy institutes to improve policy development while at the same time strengthening democratic and social institutions around the world.

TTCSP works with leading scholars and experts from consulting organizations and universities, creating an annual Global Go To Think Tank Index to rank the world's top “Think Tanks”, with the help from a council of more than 1,796 organizations and experts from media organizations, institutes, public and private sponsor organizations, and governments around the world. The goal is to promote the results of “Think Tanks” to increase public awareness of the essential roles of “Think Tanks” to the government and society.
