The Institute ambitions to be an independent regional think tank for politicians, policymakers, youth and women associations, private sectors, and scholars.

It will publish reports, case studies and short regional analyses and will disseminate them through key agents. The IFSI will then organize policy exchanges, conferences and roundtables to enhance the exchanges about regional and continental affairs putting forward a space for reflection around the critical issues of the region and finding concrete solutions for peace and security and regional economic integration.
