About the VIVEKANANDA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION
The Vivekananda International Foundation is an independent non-partisan
institution that conducts research and analysis on domestic and international
issues, and offers a platform for dialogue and conflict resolution. Some of India’s
leading practitioners from the fields of security, military, diplomacy, government,
academia and media have come together to generate ideas and stimulate action on
national security issues.
The defining feature of VIF lies in its provision of core institutional
support which enables the organisation to be flexible in its approach and
proactive in changing circumstances, with a long-term focus on India’s strategic,
developmental and civilisational interests. The VIF aims to channelise fresh
insights and decades of experience harnessed from its faculty into fostering
actionable ideas for the nation’s stakeholders.
Since its inception, VIF has pursued quality research and scholarship and
made efforts to highlight issues in governance, and strengthen national security.
This is being actualised through numerous activities like seminars, round tables,
interactive dialogues, Vimarsh (public discourse), conferences and briefings. The
publications of VIF form lasting deliverables of VIF’s aspiration to impact on the
prevailing discourse on issues concerning India’s national interest.
