Global Research was established on the 9th of September 2001, two days before the tragic events of September 11. Within a few days, the site had become a major news source on the New World Order and Washington’s war on terrorism.
The Centre for Research on Globalization (CRG) is an independent research and media organization, based in Montreal and is a registered non-profit in the province of Quebec, Canada. The Global Research website publishes news articles, commentary, background research, and analysis on a broad range of issues, focusing on social, political, economic, cultural, strategic, and environmental issues.
Since 2001, Global Research has established an international network of authors, scholars, and investigative journalists. The underlying concept is the 'democratization' of research and media reporting, while maintaining high standards of investigation and analysis.
In addition to the Global Research websites, the Centre is involved in book publishing, support to humanitarian projects, as well as educational outreach activities, including the organization of public conferences and lectures. The Centre also acts as a think tank on crucial economic and geopolitical issues.
In an era of media disinformation, our focus has essentially been to center on the 'unspoken truth'.
In early 2006, Global Research established a separate French language website. In 2007, we launched Spanish Español, Portuguese Português, and German Deutsch language pages, which contain translations of Global Research articles. Arabic العربية, Italian Italiano, and Serbian Srpski language pages were launched in 2008.
Asia-Pacific-Research (APR)
In May 2015, the Centre for Research on Globalization established the Asia-Pacific Research (APR) website. APR is an independent media and research initiative with an editorial team based in Asia, the EU, and North America with correspondents in several countries of the region. The website publishes news articles, commentary, background research, and analysis with a specific focus on the dynamics of the Asia-Pacific region. APR combines Asia-Pacific country level news with a broader regional and international perspective of World events.
In 2017, Global Research established a Spanish language website Globalizacion.ca based in Mexico City.
Global Research TV (GRTV)
In June 2010, we launched The Global Research TV (GRTV) website, which features selected videos as well as commentary, analysis and news coverage
Global Research articles are used as source material by college and university students. Moreover, numerous universities, libraries and research institutions have established a link to Global Research on their respective web sites.
Global Research has also become a source of specialized information and analysis for journalists, senior government officials, financial analysts, and non-governmental organizations.
GR Radio: The Global Research News Hour (GRNH)
In November 2012, we launched our Radio program: produced by Michael Welch in collaboration with CKUW 95.9 FM (University of Winnipeg, Manitoba).
The Global Research News Hour also airs on university campus, college and community radio stations in Canada and the US.
