Global Knowledge Initiative

The Center for Advanced Defense Studies Inc (C4ADS) is a nonprofit organization based in Washington, DC, with a mission to combat illicit networks that pose a threat to global peace and security. They take a unique approach by viewing the world as an interconnected set of systems rather than just a collection of states, focusing on the underlying threats to global security caused by illicit networks that operate across borders. Through data-driven and tech-powered investigations, C4ADS maps out entire transnational illicit systems and identifies precise targets to disrupt them. C4ADS utilizes cutting-edge data and technology capabilities to harness the power of publicly available information, enabling them to uncover and analyze the networks that harm our world. They work in collaboration with a global network of action-focused partners, including public, private, and civil society stakeholders, to create unified responses to illicit networks and undermine the motivating forces behind them. With a focus on defeating illicit networks, C4ADS aims to prevent development setbacks, destabilization of communities, and environmental devastation caused by these networks.Generated from the website
