The 2019 Global Go To Think Tank Index (GGTTI) was released and published by the Think Tanks and Civil Societies Program (TTCSP) of the University of Pennsylvania today. For the fifth consecutive time, The Hague Centre for Strategic Studies is honored to be featured in the Index, which is derived from a database of 8,248 think tanks worldwide.
HCSS is included in 5 different categories of the 2019 index. In comparison to other European think tanks (a total of 2219 are listed), HCSS is proud to be ranked within the top 50 in all 5 categories.

We do not take our inclusion in the index for granted, so we would like to thank everyone who participated in the 2019 survey and considered HCSS in the ranking.
HCSS is pleased to be acknowledged for its high quality, creative, evidenced based and actionable research products especially in the domains of defense and security, cyber, and energy and resources.
