Gateway House: Indian Council on Global Relations is a forum which brings together individuals and organizations with an interest in foreign affairs and India’s place in the international system. We provide our members with an independent forum to allow them to interact in an open and impartial environment with business people, diplomats, the media, NGOs, policy-makers and researchers to discuss international affairs. 

As Indian business expands overseas, access to Gateway House research and scholarship and networking with other members and international policy-makers will help provide the intellectual base for policy prescriptions and foreign policy knowledge both Indian and international. Through Gateway House, Indian businesses and individuals can articulate their unique foreign policy objectives based on responsible scholarship.

The membership of Gateway House comprises of individuals and corporations genuinely interested in the scholarship and debate of foreign policy and in grooming the next generation of foreign policy leaders in India. Admission of new members will be semi-annual through application, recommendation and approval by a committee.  To request a membership application, please contact Celine D'Silva at +91-22-2202 3371 or membership@gatewayhouse.in
