Review for Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment, and Security, Oakland, CA, USA
I have been formally affiliated with the Pacific Institute for three years but aware of its outstanding contribution to understanding global water issues and the challenge of fostering a sustainable and equitable planet for well over a decade. The core strength of the Institute is its capacity to do innovative research in the context of human values--serving all humanity. The work has policy and community impact --achieving all three (research, policy, community impact) at the highest standard.
The organization is well run, collaborative, fiscally conservative and responsible, and creative in program design and goals.
The Pacific Institute is a model for non-profit research organizations desiring to make an impact.
