520			_aThe Research and Information System for the Non-Aligned and Other Developing Countries (RIS) is an autonomous research institution established with the financial support of the Government of India. RIS is India's contribution to the fulfilment of the long-felt need of the developing world for creating a 'Think Tank' on global issues in the field of international economic relations and development cooperation. RIS has also been envisioned as a forum for fostering effective intellectual dialogue among developing countries. RIS is also mandated to function as an advisory body to the Government of India on matters pertaining to multilateral economic and social issues, including regional and sub-regional cooperation arrangements, as may be referred to it from time to time. RIS functions in close association with various governmental bodies, research institutions, academicians, policy-makers, business and industry circles in India and abroad. RIS has conducted policy research and other activities in collaboration with other agencies, including United Nations-Economic and Social Commission for Asia and Pacific (UN-ESCAP), United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), United Nations University (UNU), Group of 77, Non-Aligned Movement, SAARC Secretariat, Asian Development Bank (ADB), The World Bank, and the South Centre.
