Harvard Kennedy School Think Tank Search
Think Tank Search is a custom Google search of over 1200 think tank websites.
For the purposes of this search, think tanks are defined as institutions affiliated with universities, governments, advocacy groups, foundations, non-governmental organizations, and businesses that generate public policy research, analysis, and activity.
PRO TIP: Always look at the "About Us" page and the organization's mission statement to find out what a think tank's biases and goals are.
Influential Think Tanks
Non-partisan does *not* mean that an organization does not have a political agenda; many do and some do not (notably, the Pew Research Center, which bills itself as a "fact tank" to highlight this difference). Be sure to look at the organization's mission statement and the "about us" sections of the site.
