In 2023, FPCI launched the Middle Power Studies Network (MPSN)—a dedicated unit focused on exploring the rise of middle powers and their foreign policy in the 21st century. MPSN brings together scholars, officials, policymakers, practitioners, and other key stakeholders from middle power countries to examine emerging trends and the growing influence of middle powers in regional and global affairs. Through a range of programs—such as track 1.5 and track 2 roundtable discussions, public forums and webinars, written publications, podcasts, among others—MPSN fosters collaborative work among institutional and individual partners from middle power countries.
