In an era marked by political shifts, economic transitions, and changing donor landscapes, how do think tanks in the Western Balkans remain relevant and impactful?
This episode with Sonja Stojanovic-Gajic, former director of the Belgrade Centre for Security Policy, dives into the unique challenges and opportunities facing policy institutions in the Balkans region. From navigating democratic backsliding to adapting to reduced international funding, we explore how think tank leaders are innovating, building trust, and shaping the future of policy in a rapidly evolving world.
