ABOUT US

"When research works, it results in a stronger policy and practice. The Center builds on the University’s 17 years of research experience. CPRO seeks to strengthen and expand research practice across campus while linking our expertise to new questions, opportunities, and partners (local and international). CPRO creates a platform bringing together interdisciplinary policy research and outreach across actors. To succeed, the Center will spread WIUT’s positive research culture in all we do.” – Peter Malvicini, Director of the Center for Policy Research and Outreach.

Westminster International University in Tashkent introduces the Center for Policy Research and Outreach.

The Center builds on the University’s 17 years of research experience and WIUT’s recognition for generating knowledge for Uzbekistan, Central Asia, and beyond.

CPRO supports the education and research missions of Westminster International University in Tashkent (WIUT). By pulling together researchers to engage in new, collaborative, and interdisciplinary research, we can more effectively respond to the demands of government, private sector and civil society.

CPRO is only innovative and effective because it relies on our positive research culture and focus on specific research audiences. Researchers are free to be creative in an atmosphere of intellectual stimulation. Active engagement with users of research keeps the research enterprise real.
