American-German Institute

The American-German Institute is a research policy center dedicated to better understanding the challenges and choices facing Germany and the United States in a broader global arena.

Since 1983, AGI (founded as the American Institute for Contemporary German Studies) has focused exclusively on the most pressing issues at stake for Germany and the United States. An independent, nonpartisan think tank with in-depth policy expertise and understanding of both countries, AGI collaborates with policymakers, corporate leaders, and other research centers to deliver in-depth analysis and actionable intelligence on both sides of the Atlantic. Policymakers, business leaders, and the interested public draw on these insights to anticipate trends, reduce risk, and positively influence policy choices.

AGI provides a comprehensive program of public forums, policy studies, research, and fellowships designed to enrich the political, corporate, and scholarly constituencies it serves.
