About the Institute
Celebrating our journey, embracing future horizons
In 2024, TNI celebrates 50 years of remarkable achievements through a series of events, essays, podcasts, and more throughout the year. This significant milestone was highlighted by our major (hybrid) event, 'Ignite,' on September 27th in Amsterdam. 'Ignite' symbolizes our enduring legacy and forward-thinking vision. As we commemorate half a century of impactful work, we also take this moment to reflect on the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Join us in celebrating TNI's journey as we prepare for a future filled with new possibilities.

Achievements in 2023
Annual report
TNI achieved important progress in 2023 toward the equitable, democratic and peaceful world we envision. At the policy level, we celebrated more nails driven into the coffin of one of the biggest barriers to climate action – the Energy Charter Treaty and its investor protections; and put a critique of green colonialism squarely on the public agenda. We continued to publish cutting-edge analyses to challenge the growing menace of digital capitalism, and advocated for ending the moratorium on taxation of transnational e-commerce. In response to the juggernaut of militarism, with a particular focus on the endless war in Ukraine and the Israeli decimation of Palestine, we offered vitally important counter-narratives helping to shift public opinion more in favour of peace. We drew the connections between securitisation and a number of key issues, from drug policy to migration to climate change, and proposed more just and equitable approaches. With our proposals and counter-narratives, we reached impressive audiences around the world.
