Programme Officer- International Relations

**ABOUT ANANTA**:
We curate dialogues that shape the world and India’s relations with the world.

These Dialogues address not only current concerns but look beyond the horizon to find new realms of development.

Armed with two decades of experience in bringing together high-level stakeholders from government, industry, media and thought leaders, we generate a unique intellectual firepower with our dialogues. A firepower we use to help shape India’s foreign policy.

**OUR WORK DIVISION**:
We convene INTERNATIONAL DIALOGUES that facilitate dialogues between influencers from India and other countries. This helps participants appreciate each other’s challenges and work towards mutually acceptable solutions. Being influencers, participants can use the learning gathered to inform policies back home.

We do values based LEADERSHIP PROGRAMMES that identify prospective change makers from all walks of life and help them reflect on, and realize their calling to lead change.

We create platforms for POLICY DIALOGUES that bring together diverse talent to ideate and arrive at actionable solutions to the problems faced by society.

**INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS TEAM**:
We are a convening body for exchange of ideas, broadening perspectives and enhancing capacity to create sustainable solutions on a wide variety of issues.

We bring together the brightest minds from diverse fields, combining their knowledge and expertise towards developing a robust policy paradigm. We engage civil society, business, governments and other key stakeholders through our uniquely-designed Track 1.5 and Track 2 Strategic Dialogues, Forums, Round Tables, Workshops, Public Sessions and Task Forces.

The Track 1.5 and Track 2 processes seek to assist the G2G channels in finding solutions beyond the contours of the existing bilateral relationship. We do this by recognizing potential areas of conflict, identifying solutions to existing roadblocks and recommending new avenues of collaboration for industrial, economic, political, environmental and cultural growth.
