The Eurasia Policy Forum identifies and addresses emerging
policy issues that have an impact on the development of open
societies in the south Caucasus and Central Asia region. Each
policy issue is addressed in a series of research briefs whose
findings advocate particular policy innovations aimed at both
western and regional policy makers. Leading experts are invited
to serve on an Advisory Group for each topic to consult on
the substance of the research documents and are asked to engage
in both private and public discussions on the issue. Additionally,
conferences in the US and the region will accompany each topic
to provide an opportunity for detailed discussion of the research
findings and to encourage a detailed and informed discussion
on the issues.
The research briefs culminate in a publication offering in-depth
analysis and policy recommendations useful to donors, national
governments, NGOs, and the media.

• US and UN Drug
Policy Toward Central Asia
• HIV/AIDS and
Harm Reduction in Central Asia
• Women and the
Drug Crisis - the Case of Tajikistan
The resource-rich states of the Caspian Basin
today face the very real prospect of unprecedented
revenues from the sale and transport of oil and
natural gas, and from mining. Until now, most
attention has focused on how these resources will
come to market and which companies and which national
interests will benefit. But if we look beyond
the pipeline routes, swap deals and mining concessions,
there are even more fundamental questions for
these countries: Who will control the resources,
and how will they be used?
