ABOUT THE PROGRAM

The Russia and Eurasia Program engages in projects that provide research, analysis, assessment, and recommendations to government and non-government officials for action. Its substantive focus encompasses all the regions of the former Soviet Union.

The Russia and Eurasia Program also undertakes projects that examine pivotal and timely issues affecting Eastern Europe and Central Asia such as economic development , energy, democratization, HIV/AIDS, and human rights abuses. The program raises awareness of issues related to these topics; investigates their causes, nature, and local and international consequences, and proposes potential solutions through a variety of meetings, seminars and publications.

Alongside its projects and policy work, the program builds and maintains strategic networks of scholars and experts for its various initiatives.

More information about our projects and access to program publications can be found on the Russia & Eurasia program publication page.
