IGDORE is a small, independent, nonprofit research institute founded in Sweden in 2016 and organized as a globally distributed network rather than a conventional campus university. Its model gives affiliated researchers a formal institutional home while allowing them to work remotely, supporting collaboration across roughly 45 countries. For external partners, IGDORE provides open-science guidance, including preregistration support, transparency review, training, workshops, and selected teaching or consultancy under its affiliation. Funding is supported through researcher-hosted grants and donations, with grant management in Sweden and access to relevant European Union funding routes. A code of research conduct and an emphasis on transparent, reproducible practice shape its collaboration model.
