Collective Intelligence in International Affairs
OUR MISSION
Our mission is to analyze how the civilized machinery works together to solve complex collective problems and utilize synergies that make it possible for humans to strategically innovate.
OUR VISION
Our vision is to redefine global cooperation by improving the collective human composition, interaction, policy intervention and transformations resulting from innovations of present and future generations.
ABOUT US
Strahl Composite is a think tank with a unique global perspective and experience analyzing and intervening in the collective intelligence space between humans and the totality of civilizations. Chiefly, how societies, institutions, and other governing systems solve complex collective problems. We examine and reflect potential synergies derived from vast differences and competing interests wrought by innovations to enhance collective intelligence.
Our systems analysis approach is interdisciplinary and combines social-scientific traditions in the analysis of organizing processes and their outcomes. We put the human at the center of this approach. How humans and sovereign states interact with each other, how humans interact with technology and vice-versa, how humans build the world, and how humans exchange goods, services, and information across borders. Our research is driven by a strong interest in collective intelligence as a practical, situated, contested, and changing matter.

FEATURED REPORTS
Collective Intelligence reports from our colleagues around the world
INFRASTRUCTURE
State of Africa's Infrastructure Report | 2026

GLOBAL BUSINESS
Global Human Capital Trends | 2026
Published by Deloitte’s human capital practice, the report explores the forces reshaping work, the workforce, and the workplace. This year’s survey revealed a shift from tensions to tipping points. How can organizations adapt to meet these challenges earlier and maintain the human edge?
TECH+SOCIETY
Artificial Intelligence | 2025-2027
Published in 2025 by a group called the AI Futures Project, the report is a comprehensive scenario predicting how artificial intelligence will pan out to extremely advanced levels from 2025-2027 with specific milestones. It invites interest in determining the advancement of the technology and questions what policies we should be prepared to create to meet those predictions.
DIPLOMACY
The Global Cooperation Barometer | 2026
This year’s edition offers stakeholders insight both into how cooperation is taking place and what leaders can do to advance in a more uncertain era where the composition appears to be changing. Metrics relating to multilateralism weakened the most. Metrics in which more flexible and smaller arrangements of cooperation can operate—in data flows, services trade, and select capital flows, for example—have continued to grow.
