Reshaping Multilateralism in the Face of Complex Crises
The project
Nexus25 is an ongoing transatlantic initiative focused on the renewal of outdated multilateral structures.
Through policy-oriented research, high-level events among political and operational stakeholders, and partnerships with on-the-ground experts, Nexus25 aims to contribute to a better understanding of complex crises traversing the food-climate-migration-security nexus. The project is carried out by the Istituto Affari Internazionali (IAI) and The Center for Climate and Security (CCS), and is funded by Stiftung Mercator.
