The BIM is member of FaTT – Forum of Foreign Policy Think Tanks, launched by the Vienna School of International Studies. The FaTT is a network of organisations and institutes based in Austria which focus on foreign and European policy. The participating institutions are active in many fields, including research, education, events and consulting.

The objectives of the Forum are to exchange information and best practice, research papers and briefing materials, to discuss and co-operate regarding Austrian foreign policy priorities and to strengthen interest in foreign policy topics in the public sphere.

The Forum’s website serves as a platform for policy briefs and research papers from participating organisations in the arena of foreign and European policy.
