India’s First Applied IR Programme
Where serious IR discussion happens.
IR Observatory started as a community, 100+ students, researchers, and early professionals engaged in applied geopolitical discussion.

IRO Community
International Relations today cannot be understood through geopolitics alone.
The future of global affairs is increasingly shaped by the intersection of:
strategy, economics, intelligence, technology, climate, narratives, defence, cyber ecosystems, energy security, and emerging power structures.
That is the idea behind The IR Observatory.
We are building a serious applied International Relations community focused on analysis, structured discussions, simulations, writing, and strategic thinking.
What we aim to build
Only thoughtful discussions, applied analysis, collaborative learning, and long-term intellectual growth.
Analytical discussions on ongoing geopolitical developments
Collaborative research and publishing
A serious community for interdisciplinary strategic thinking
Opportunities, mentorship, and skill-building in the IR space
If you study, work in, or deeply care about International Relations and global affairs, you are welcome to be part of the community.
