A think tank, or public policy institute, is an organization that carries out research and advocacy on topics such as social policy, political strategy, economics, the military, technology and culture. Most think tanks are non-governmental organizations, though some are semi-autonomous government agencies and others are associated with particular political parties, businesses or the military, and they are often funded by individual donations alongside government grants.
