CSET is grateful for the support of those who have made financial gifts to sustain our research. Our donors include foundations, individuals, and other funding sources, and we seek to engage supporters from diverse backgrounds. CSET accepts funding from parties who share our interest in security and emerging technology and respect our commitment to intellectual independence.
Intellectual Independence
CSET’s mission is to provide decision-makers with data-driven analysis. It is central to our mission that our analysis be independent. CSET’s research agenda is determined by a combination of incoming questions from policymakers and other leaders and by our team members’ proactive identification of areas where further data and analysis would be helpful to decision-makers.
Nonpartisan Approach
CSET is a nonpartisan research organization. We do not advocate for policies but rather provide data and analysis to policymakers.
CSET publications may include researchers’ assessment of actions that would promote security interests. While CSET does not lobby for specific actions, we are proud to present the findings and analyses of experts on our team.
Conflict of Interest
CSET is governed by Georgetown University’s Financial Conflict of Interest Policy. Additionally, CSET employees are required to disclose to their CSET managers external obligations, relationships, or material interests that may overlap with their work at CSET. Disclosures are recorded in an internal register of interests and are re-evaluated biannually and when new projects are initiated. Where appropriate, mitigation steps are implemented to avoid real or perceived conflicts. These mitigation steps include additional disclosures in reports, recusal from projects, and other measures as deemed appropriate by the individual’s project lead and CSET’s Director of People and Operations.
Donors
CSET is a philanthropically-funded organization. We rely on the support of organizations and individuals to achieve our mission of providing decision-makers with the data they need to make informed AI policy decisions.
