Biography

Foa's first degree was in Philosophy, Politics and Economics from the University of Oxford. He then served as a Peter Martin Fellow at the Financial Times and researcher at the World Bank in Washington DC, where in 2008 he founded the Indices of Social Development project. While in the United States he founded the Washington European Society together with Domènec Ruiz Devesa and served as its first president. His early breakthrough contributions were in the fields of advancing global survey research (in collaboration with Ronald Inglehart and Christian Welzel), as well as the study of democracy and democratic trends with Harvard peer Yascha Mounk. More recently he has become known for global reports on democracy and democratic attitudes that have been recommended by the Atlantic Council, and New York Times. He has served as advisor to the World Bank, United Nations, and Council of Europe, and in 2021 became an advisor to the UK Cabinet Office.
