Uncovering Global Hotspots: Why I Trust the International Crisis Group for OSINT

Unlocking Global Secrets: The International Crisis Group's OSINT Expertise at Your Fingertips

 The International Crisis Group is hands down one of the top OSINT resources I’ve come across, and I find myself turning to it often. It's an independent, non-profit organization that's all about preventing and resolving deadly conflicts. With Western diplomats and politicians from the U.S. and about 50 other countries, including NATO allies, they've got some serious backing.
 

Here’s the quick rundown:
• 1995, the year Crisis Group was founded
• US$15.5 million, annual budget. Roughly half comes from Western governments
• Some 130 permanent staff worldwide, from 46 nationalities speaking 53 languages
• Over 60 conflict and potential conflict situations covered
• Around 90 reports and briefings published annually
• Over 80 issues of the monthly CrisisWatch bulletin published since 2003
• Over 860 full-length reports and briefings published since 1995
• Over 25,000 targeted recipients of reports
• Over 140,000 people subscribing online to receive reports
• Over 2.4 million website visits annually
• Over 14,000 media mentions annually
• Over 200 opinion pieces published annually 

If you're into conflict analysis, the International Crisis Group is where you want to be.
