Our latest annual report – partnership for change – reviews how we made an impact in 2019. It offers complete information on our finances and funders, a feature on the SEI Asia Centre, and as SEI celebrated 30 years of operations in 2019, tells the story of how the institute was founded, through partnership.
Last year SEI marked 30 years of working at the forefront of sustainability. It’s undergone many changes in that time. But strong and enduring partnerships and the commitment of its staff are central to how the Institute works for impact and change.
The report includes a set of stories showing how we achieved change in policy and practice in 2019. It also includes full financial information, a round up of our scientific impact and notable events in the year, and two features that both look back over 30 years of operations and look forward towards current challenges that we’re working on at SEI Asia.

SEI’s focus is on empowering and working with partners to co-create knowledge, resulting in ownership of results and sustained action.
Evidence is the bedrock of our engagement in policy and practice, and 2019 showed our performance in high quality scientific publishing again exceed the previous year, with more papers published in top-tier journals. Last year our researchers published more than 120 peer-reviewed articles, and our citation rate also increased substantially compared with 2018, from 7500 to 9652.
