The Institute for Policy Research & Development (IPRD) is an
independent research institute for interdisciplinary security studies, analysing
international terrorism, military interventions, as well as national

energy and economic crises. Founded in April 2001 in Brighton, a
UN ‘Peace Messenger’ City for 20 years, the Institute
now runs from the heart of London as an informal, non-profit international
network of specialist scholars, experts and analysts.
