The Center on International Cooperation
The Center on International Cooperation, established at New York University in 1996, promotes policy research and international consultations on multilateral responses to transnational problems. Working with officials of government and intergovernmental agencies, as well as corporate and civil society leaders, the Center seeks to clarify the political, legal and institutional foundations of effective international cooperation, including the appropriateness and feasibility of alternative sources of financing. The Center intends these efforts to produce practical policy recommendations, and to increase the public understanding necessary to implement and sustain essential multilateral activities.

Currently, the Center's work focuses on five thematic areas:
• New Dimensions of Multilateralism
• International Justice
• Humanitarian Assistance
• Economic and Social Development
• Conflict Prevention, Recovery and Peacebuilding
