About Us

English version of the main information about us, for our international partners and non-Spanish speaking organisations and colleagues.

The IDHUS Institute is a think tank dedicated to the study, analysis, and comprehensive understanding of humanity’s economic and geopolitical development. Our primary goal is to explore, anticipate, and interpret the directions in which society is evolving, addressing key challenges to the human future from a multidisciplinary and forward-looking perspective.

Mission

We were founded with the purpose of bringing a new, global, and holistic vision to the issues that shape societal development. Driven by the desire to understand the world we live in and the ongoing transformations in the systems that govern it, we focus on analyzing the geo-economic and geopolitical shifts redefining our reality.

Our mission is to deliver insightful analysis and a global perspective to help understand the trajectories of human evolution in our core fields of study. We aim to inspire and support leaders, organizations, and communities in making informed, responsible, and forward-thinking decisions. By offering a clear and strategic view of where society is headed, we contribute to building a more inclusive, ethical, and sustainable future.

Our long-term vision is to be recognized globally as a leading authority on the understanding and anticipation of social and human transformations driven by geopolitical and geo-economic change. We strive to help create a more conscious, adaptable, and resilient global society.

What we do

At the IDHUS Institute, we provide essential tools and knowledge to understand and anticipate human and societal evolution in the geopolitical and geo-economic landscape. Through specialized, future-oriented services, we empower individuals, institutions, and communities to effectively address the opportunities and challenges of a rapidly changing world.

Areas of Focus

Geo-economic Systems and Financial Dynamics
We examine global economic flows, regional shifts in economic power, trade patterns, value chains, and the influence of key actors such as transnational corporations and economic blocs. We also study the evolution of international financial structures—central banks, monetary systems, investment, and debt—and their impact on development, stability, and growth.
Geopolitics, Global Governance, and Social Structures
Our research explores power relations among states, regions, and global institutions, including conflicts, alliances, and strategic dynamics shaping the world order. We analyze governance models, control systems, and social structures that influence decision-making on a global scale, as well as their impact on peace, security, human rights, and social cohesion.
Demographic Change and Natural Resource Use
We investigate demographic trends such as population growth, aging, migration, and fertility, and how these changes affect resource distribution, availability, and sustainability. We also explore the interplay between demographic dynamics, public policy, and their broader impact on environmental, economic, and human development.
