CHRISTE is a non-profit academic institution and not an ecclesiastical one, although it is open to collaborate with and be of service to ecclesiastical institutions. It is chartered as a Research Institute under the EUCLID prerogative (United Nations Treaty Series 49006/49007). This means that CHRISTE comes under the legal governance of international law, which is consistent with the global character of the Institute.
​
By virtue of its charter, CHRISTE is also an affiliated Research Institute of the School of Theology and Interfaith Studies belonging to Pôle Universitaire Euclide (a specialised intergovernmental institution mandated to provide postgraduate education for diplomats and senior civil servants of participating countries as well as employees of the United Nations). CHRISTE is therefore able to assist prospective students who are keen to pursue postgraduate degrees in Christian Theology (either Catholic Studies, Orthodox Theology, or Comparative Theologies) and Interfaith Studies by distance learning at the masteral or doctoral levels. Degrees are conferred by Pôle Universitaire Euclide (listed in the UNESCO/IAU World Higher Education Database with identity IAU-024734).
