Work team

The research programmes at the CIDOB Foundation are working groups made up of scholars, politicians, professionals and business people who identify the important topics and political agendas in their spheres. On the basis of this, reports, articles and presentations by experts on the subject are commissioned. The working groups tend to meet two times per year.
