MISSION

The Geopolitical Economy Research Education Trust (GERET) will conduct high quality research into, and analysis of national economies, their relation to the world economy and the political management of both. Intended to be an influential research and educational trust, it will critically analyse policy alternatives for managing the interaction of national economies and states and to promote human development and mutual benefit in today’s multipolar world.

The Trust will create opportunities for research collaborations among established and new scholars and foster educational opportunities for students and members of the general public. The Trust will also support community initiatives including public lectures and community education.

New thinking on national and international political and economic issues is increasingly urgent. The founding of organizations such as GERET has marked key turning points in the intellectual and policy history of the modern world. The effective re-shaping of policy and the ability to provide the ideas and analysis required to make a better future comes only with an understanding of the historical moment.
