The Center on International Cooperation (CIC) "at New York University works to enhance international responses to humanitarian crises and global security threats through applied research and direct engagement with multilateral institutions and the wider policy community. It has an international reputation for agenda-setting work on post-conflict peacebuilding, global peace operations, and UN reform.

"The Center on International Cooperation (CIC) at New York University reached its tenth anniversary in 2006 during a period of intense debate about the future of multilateral institutions. CIC’s research and policy-development programs help policy-makers develop strategies for managing emerging and recurrent threats and to identify opportunities for institutional reform." [1]

"CIC’s program of research on International Humanitarian Action examines the institutional architecture and resource base of the international humanitarian system, and tracks developments in policy and practice. Focusing on the evolving roles of the major humanitarian actors and institutions in a changing security context, CIC aims to provide a critical review of humanitarian policy and practice, and produce actionable policy recommendations that reflect the changing political realities. In this effort, CIC has entered into a formal research partnership with the Humanitarian Policy Group of the Overseas Development Institute (ODI)...

"Lead Researchers : Abby Stoddard (CIC Non-Resident Fellow) and Adele Harmer (Humanitarian Policy Group, ODI)." [2]
