Institut nigérien d'études stratégiques et internationales

The Institut nigérien d'études stratégiques et internationales (INESI) is a Nigerien think tank focused on strategic, geopolitical and international questions. It was conceived after a meeting in Paris in 2012, when founding members decided to create a reflection group dedicated to Niger. Its website was launched in Niamey in 2018. The institute presents itself as independent from public authorities, businesses, associations and trade unions, and operates on the own resources of its members. Among its active members are Nigerien researchers working in Nigerien and foreign universities or intergovernmental organizations, such as political scientist Ramatou Adamou Gado (University of Niamey and Montreal, International Organization for Migration) and Adam Abdou Hassan (lecturer-researcher at the University of Rouen). INESI's mission is to facilitate and inform on themes relating to Niger and its immediate environment. It is organized around several poles, including research, publication of knowledge, training and events. Its areas of interest include Nigerien foreign policy, energy, security and religious radicalism, terrorism, migration, traditional architecture, education, literature, medicine, entrepreneurship, the economy, state failure and societal issues. The institute aims to develop knowledge about Niger from the country's own internal resources and to promote the implementation of original concepts.
