The Institute for Applied Geopolitical Studies ("Institut d'Études de Géopolitique Appliquée", "Institut EGA") is guided by a concern
for independence, objectivity and integrity. It places its activities in the
pursuit of the general interest and exercises them in a spirit of
responsibility.
Accordingly:
- It does not support or defend any particular
interest, nor does it support any cause or position of a partisan nature ;
- In its approach, it ensures the overall balance
between stakeholders and the plurality of opinions expressed ;
- The requirement of responsibility implies that
any public expression made using the name of the think tank is marked by
moderation in language and in judgments ;
- The work of the think tank is in principle
public. Due to their nature, however, some may remain confidential ;
- The think tank ensures that the funding and
material support it receives, whether public or private, French or foreign,
cannot call into question the implementation of the principles and values that
define it. The Board of Directors is called upon to decide on any funding that
could, by its scale or origin, lead to a doubt about the independence of the
think tank.
