Reut Institute

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Reut Institute is a policy group designed to provide real-time long-term strategic decision-support to the Government of Israel.

Established in January 2004 by Gidi Grinstein and a team of founders, Reut is a non-partisan non-profit policy team based in Tel Aviv that supplies its services pro-bono solely to the Government of Israel.

Reut's current focus areas are National Security and Top15: Socio-Economics. They are described as "very influential and highly respected" by Ido Aharoni, spokesman to Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, who noted that virtually every key ministry in the government has utilized Reut’s services.

Reut is supported by private donors and does not accept any contribution that exceeds 15% of its yearly budget, nor any donations from government agencies (Israeli or foreign).
