EMOL
EMOL is a research and analysis organization based in Santiago, Chile that focuses on public affairs, policy studies, and media dissemination. It engages with academic institutions, international organizations, civil society groups, and political parties to produce reports, commentary, and multimedia content. EMOL's outputs are cited by journalists, policymakers, and scholars across Latin America and beyond.
EMOL conducts applied research and commentary that intersects with topics addressed by United Nations, Organization of American States, World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and regional actors such as Mercosur and Pacific Alliance. Its analyses are frequently compared alongside work from institutions like Brookings Institution, Council on Foreign Relations, Chatham House, Inter-American Dialogue, and Carnegie Endowment for International Peace. EMOL hosts events that bring together figures from Presidential administrations, Foreign ministries, and legislative bodies including delegations from Chile and neighboring countries such as Argentina, Peru, and Bolivia.
EMOL was established in the 20XXs amid debates involving prominent actors including former state leaders and academics connected to Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, University of Chile, and international scholars affiliated with Harvard University and University of Oxford. Early collaborations involved policy advisors who had previously worked with Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Chile), members of the Chilean Congress, and consultants from firms like McKinsey & Company and Boston Consulting Group. Over its history EMOL has hosted panels featuring figures from Presidential elections and representatives from organizations such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch.
EMOL states its mission as informing public debate through research, commentary, and outreach, aligning programming with agendas discussed at forums like Summit of the Americas, United Nations General Assembly, and regional economic summits where institutions such as Inter-American Development Bank and Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean participate. Activities include briefings for members of Chilean Senate, workshops with staff from Ministry of Economy (Chile), and joint projects with universities including Stanford University, Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, and Universidad de Buenos Aires. EMOL runs public lecture series featuring speakers from Nobel Prize laureates, former cabinet ministers, and academics associated with London School of Economics and Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
EMOL's funding sources reportedly include philanthropic foundations akin to Ford Foundation, Open Society Foundations, and regional donors comparable to Fundación Andes. It lists partnerships with media outlets similar to El Mercurio, La Tercera, and international publishers such as The New York Times and The Guardian for syndication. EMOL has collaborated on grants and projects with multilateral institutions such as World Bank, Inter-American Development Bank, and research networks linked to European Union programs and foundations that support academic exchanges with institutions like Columbia University and Johns Hopkins University.
EMOL publishes policy briefs, op-eds, data visualizations, and multimedia content disseminated through platforms similar to YouTube, Twitter, and news aggregators like Google News. Its publications are often cited alongside reports from Transparency International, Economist Intelligence Unit, and academic journals published by presses such as Cambridge University Press and Oxford University Press. EMOL has produced special reports timed with events like the COP climate conferences, regional trade negotiations involving MERCOSUR, and electoral cycles across Latin America.
EMOL has faced scrutiny over alleged funding transparency and perceived editorial slants, drawing commentary from investigative outlets and watchdogs similar to ProPublica, CitizenLab, and advocacy groups including Transparency International and Amnesty International. Critics have compared its stance on certain policy debates with partisan actors within Chilean Congress and electoral campaigns, prompting debate in newspapers such as El Mercurio and La Tercera. Controversies have also involved disputes with academics from University of Chile and foreign scholars affiliated with Harvard Kennedy School over methodology and sourcing in published analyses.
EMOL's governance reportedly includes a board of directors comprising academics, former diplomats, and private sector executives from firms like EY and PwC, alongside advisory councils with members from institutions including Pontifical Catholic University of Chile, Universidad de Chile, Stanford University, and guest experts from United Nations agencies. Leadership positions have been held by figures with prior roles in Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Chile), municipal administrations such as Santiago Municipality, and international organizations including Inter-American Development Bank.
