About 2/2: Our Values: The EWI network is united by the values of respect, fairness, responsibility, honesty and compassion. We work to give everyone a voice and establish trust among all parties within the framework of these values.
Our Approach: EWI is more than a think-tank. Through our programs we translate our values and ideas into action. We:
- Provide a sanctuary for discreet conversation.
- We bring together individuals, institutions and nations that do not usually cooperate and represent both grassroots pragmatism and high-level policy.
- Probe and listen generously in order to test new ideas, reframe issues and create win-win solutions.
- Identify, develop and network future leaders from the business, public and social sectors to be intellectual entrepreneurs committed to resolving current and horizon issues.
Our Independence: The EastWest Institute is a non-profit organization. Our fierce independence is ensured by the diversity of our supporters. They include individuals,foundations, institutions, and businesses from around the world. We accept limited project funding from some governments.
