  2. IIASA • Founded in 1972 as a Cold War, bridge-building institution to explore the use of systems analysis approaches to the problems of industrial societies. • Expanded its scope to address global change issues, as its membership has grown since 2000 to include countries around the world (Africa, Asia, Europe and North America). • Non-political; members are science academies and science funding organisations.  • Policy-oriented research into problems that are too comprehensive or too complex to be solved by a single country or academic discipline • Some 200 mathematicians, social scientists, natural scientists, economists and engineers develop assessment and decision-support methodologies, global databases and analytical tools to study these issues. • IIASA has strong and wide collaborative networks with leading universities and institutes all over the world.
