The creation of the Istitute in 1966 reflected the Gaulist determination to build a world that would be governed democratically by states with equal voting rights, exercising their freedom as sovereign nations. An instrument of French diplomacy, the IIAP combined a vision of the future with an all-important tradition of training professionals for service in French-speaking countries abroad. As a centre for advanced study answering to a very real need, it left its mark on thousands of civil servants. In 1981 at the request of local partners, the IIAP took a step in another direction with the setting up of a more diversified curriculum with a strong emphasis on economics. During this same period it entered a ompetitive market, and thanks to the events of 1989, was able to establish cooperative ties with Central and Eastern Europe. The competition which then existed between the IIPA`s activities and those of ENA gave rise to the idea of a merger, whtich became a reality only some years later
