The main aim of the Institute is to help guide policy around the globe to make the world a more prosperous and democratic place.
It particularly focuses on the Covid-19 recovery, net-zero, and the war in Ukraine.
The former Prime Minister also continues to hold influence in the political world outside of his charity work.
During the 2014 Scottish referendum, Blair was a vocal and influential proponent of the successful “no” campaign i.e. pro-union. However, during the 2016 Brexit campaign he unsuccessfully campaigned for “remain”, and has continued to make clear he feels Britain leaving the EU was a mistake.
