SUMMARY:PONI 2024 Summer Conference
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic and International Studies|In-Person Event \nDescription: The Project on Nuclear Issues (PONI) will host its 2024 Summer Conference at Los Alamos National Laboratory on July 17-18. The conference will explore topics related to nuclear deterrence\, including deterring two nuclear peers\, extended deterrence\, deterring opportunistic aggression\, the impact of emerging and disruptive technologies on deterrence\, deterrence failure and intrawar deterrence\, escalation management\, and the nexus of deterrence and arms control. An agenda is forthcoming and the conference will be in-person only. PONI will be staying at La Posada de Santa Fe. We encourage participants to book their accommodations in this area. A shuttle bus will take participants to Los Alamos each morning. Public parking is available on lab grounds upon request. Due to lab access requirements\, registration for foreign nationals has now closed. Registering to attend the conference does not imply approval or guarantee site access. You will receive a final confirmation email once you are approved to visit Los Alamos. \nWhy Attend?  The PONI Conference Series is unique in that it brings together junior and senior level professionals from the military\, national laboratories\, industry\, academia\, and policy sphere to hear select presentations on a range of topics related to nuclear weapons policy and strategy\, including research related to deterrence\, the NPT and nonproliferation\, modernization\, regional nuclear studies\, and other related fields. The Conference Series provides presenters with a visible platform for sharing their thinking on a wide range of nuclear issues. PONI conferences provide excellent opportunities for rising professionals to present and receive feedback on their research from a diverse group of experts and stakeholders in the nuclear community. Our conferences are also a great way to build connections with academics\, national lab representatives\, military officers\, policymakers\, and industry representatives from across the nuclear enterprise.This event is made possible through the generous support of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency\, the National Nuclear Security Administration\, and U.S. national nuclear laboratories.  \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Preparing the Next Generation of Diplomats
DESCRIPTION:United States Institute of Peace | In-Person Event \nDescription: Military doctrine has been an essential part of any grand strategy for more than a century. But a diplomatic equivalent has never existed\, leaving a gap in statecraft. With “Diplomatic Tradecraft\,” the first practical diplomacy textbook\, Nicholas Kralev and colleagues at the Washington International Diplomatic Academy have taken a step toward creating a body of interrelated operational concepts describing how to influence the behavior of other states and people by mostly nonviolent means. They teach skills that\, in the past\, could be learned only on the job. “Diplomatic Tradecraft” brings together 18 career diplomats with decades of experience to lift the curtain on a mysterious but vital profession\, and to pass on the insights and abilities they gained to those who will succeed them. With compelling narratives\, case studies and exercises\, the book forms a cohesive and comprehensive volume. Join USIP to mark the book’s publication\, and for a conversation on the current state of U.S. and global diplomacy\, its impact on real people’s lives\, and the urgent need for governments to rethink their approaches to recruiting and training diplomats. This event will be followed by a book signing. If you wish to participate\, please purchase a copy of “Diplomatic Tradecraft” ahead of time and bring it with you to the event. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:The American Democracy and Health Security Initiative: Lighting a Path Amid Pandemic Polarization
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic and International Studies|Virtual Event \nDescription: Please join the Brown University School of Public Health Pandemic Center\, the COVID Collaborative\, and the CSIS Bipartisan Alliance for Global Health Security for the launch of the American Democracy and Health Security Initiative. The story of how America fared under the Covid-19 pandemic is actually two stories. While the more well-known story is one of failure\, confusion\, and polarization\, the other story is one of American ingenuity amidst profound uncertainty. State and local leaders were at the center of this untold story—in serving their communities they innovated\, bridged divides\, and illuminated America’s path during the Covid-19 pandemic’s darkest days. The American Democracy and Health Security Initiative spotlights these lamplighters and harvests their hard-won lessons\, to ensure the most successful strategies can be sustained or replicated in future crises. On June 5\, the American Democracy and Health Security Initiative will publish its findings on what actionable steps are needed to advance our health security for the future. The event will feature leaders from across the country from Governors\, advisors\, and health leaders to community organizations\, educators\, businesses\, and crisis managers. We will discuss urgent opportunities to make the country more resilient against future threats to our health security and to our democracy and identify national and local innovations that must be retained and playbooks that are needed to reinvigorate leadership\, bipartisanship\, and equitable access in the face of the next health emergency in America. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:A Conversation on Debt Sustainability and Growth in Sub-Saharan African Countries
DESCRIPTION:United States Institute of Peace | Virtual Event \nDescription: Debt issuance can help finance much-needed investments in Sub-Saharan countries and sort out key bottlenecks to growth. However\, while many of the investments made were essential for economic progress\, several governments overestimated the growth impact of such investments and underestimated implementation constraints and future shocks\, both leading to borrowing beyond the country’s repayment capacity and eventually driving debt distress. This has threatened their macroeconomic stability and limited their ability to invest in the critical areas necessary for long-term economic growth\, such as climate resilience\, education\, healthcare\, and social services. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Paths to progress: Race\, equity\, and democracy
DESCRIPTION:The Brookings Institution | Virtual Event \nDescription: Our country’s overall progress is undeniably linked to race relations and the well-being of various racial groups. People across racial and ethnic identities desire financial security\, health\, affordable housing\, quality schools\, and safe neighborhoods\, along with confidence that our government and leaders act with a sense of fairness. The differing outcomes across racial lines on basic quality of life measures make racial equity a pivotal issue for the upcoming U.S. presidential election. On Monday\, June 3\, the new Center for Community Uplift (CCU) at Brookings\, directed by Senior Fellow Andre M. Perry\, will explore how different racial groups perceive their progress on measures of well-being and economic security. The “Paths to Progress” event is co-hosted by HUMANLEVEL\, an initiative founded by artist and activist John Legend that promotes systemic change and racial equity across American communities. Differentiating from the dominant discourse around racial divisions\, “Paths to Progress” will address racial equity as a unifying priority and an issue at stake in the upcoming presidential election. Featured scholars and practitioners will focus on our interconnectedness with the aim of forming a policy agenda around achieving collective prosperity. John Legend will lead an intimate conversation on solutions that eliminate discrimination\, racism\, and exclusion. This event is part of Election ’24: Issues at Stake\, a Brookings initiative that aims to bring public attention to consequential policy issues confronting voters and policymakers in the run up to the 2024 election. This includes equipping leaders with insights and policy ideas to help them govern in 2025 and beyond. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:US Trade Representative Katherine Tai on the future for US-EU trade
DESCRIPTION:The Atlantic Council | Virtual Event \nDescription: On Monday\, June 3 at 1:00 p.m. ET\, the Atlantic Council is hosting an #ACFrontPage conversation featuring United States Trade Representative Katherine Tai on how the United States and European Union (EU) should evolve the transatlantic trade relationship to reflect new geopolitical realities. As the Bretton Woods system marks its eightieth anniversary\, there is growing recognition that the international financial and trading system should adapt to the realities of the modern global economy. But how it adapts\, and what founding principles it holds on to\, will be critical. Through the post-war years and beyond\, strong trade relations between the United States and Europe provided increased prosperity and security and have been a stabilizing force. However\, today both sides of the Atlantic are confronting new geopolitical and geoeconomic realities\, which have triggered debate over the future of this order—and mirror similar challenges the transatlantic alliance faced in the early postwar years. These strategic challenges have sparked new action around economic security\, including\, for example\, export controls\, investment screening\, and\, most recently\, Washington’s imposition of higher tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles\, semiconductors\, critical minerals\, batteries\, and more. Transatlantic coordination on these challenges will be critical to build greater resilience to any response from Beijing and other challengers\, and the revitalization and restoration of the global economic system is a mission of the Atlantic Council’s Bretton Woods 2.0 project. Placing today’s challenges in the context of the original vision for Bretton Woods and the fight for democracy\, Ambassador Tai joins the Atlantic Council for a moderated conversation on these critical issues\, the future of US-EU trade relations\, and the nexus of trade\, economic policy\, and national security. This edition of #ACFrontPage will be livestreamed on Atlantic Council TV\, YouTube\, Facebook\, and X (formerly Twitter). This event is open to the public\, including media\, via the livestream. To join us virtually\, please complete the registration form. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Can Connectivity Reconnect the EU and Türkiye?
DESCRIPTION:German Marshall Fund |In-Person Event \nDescription: Amid a stalled accession process and a lack of progress on critical issues such as structured foreign policy dialogue\, visa liberalization\, and customs union modernization\, the EU and Türkiye need a positive agenda to guide their relations. Connectivity initiatives prevail as a new ground for cooperation given geopolitical developments and geo-economic shifts\, and the Middle Corridor is a promising avenue for linking Europe to Central Asia and beyond\, facilitating transportation and access to energy resources. In addition\, Türkiye’s proposal of the Development Corridor further underscores its commitment to enhancing connectivity\, offering a North-South axis in Iraq that connects Basra to Türkiye and extends to Europe and the Middle Corridor. Türkiye stands poised as a significant potential partner for EU connectivity as it leverages its strategic location and robust network of relationships\, especially within the Council of Turkic States. Join us for a conversation on the opportunities and challenges of cooperation on connectivity between Türkiye and the EU. A light lunch will be served before the event. Please RSVP by May 27 by clicking the button above. Should you have any questions or require special assistance\, please contact contact Ceylan Canbilek at ccanbilek@gmfus.org. This event is part of a series of events and analyses organized by the GMF-Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye (TOBB) Fellowship on Türkiye\, Europe\, and Global Issues. The fellowship was launched in 2017. The German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF) is a nonpartisan policy organization committed to the idea that the United States and Europe are stronger together. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:The Red Zone: Charting Paths to Resilience in the Climate-Conflict Nexus
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic and International Studies | In-Person & Virtual event \nDescription: The interplay between climate change and conflict has exacerbated humanitarian crisis and human insecurity globally. In an era marked by rising temperatures\, water scarcity\, and protracted conflict–from the arid landscapes of the Middle East to land degradation of Sub-Saharan Africa–the impact of climate shocks and violence is unmistakable and costly. The humanitarian sector must respond to the gravest needs while navigating the complex terrain of climate adaptation in crisis-affected regions\, overcoming funding barriers\, and bolstering resilience against climate variability. It is imperative that the international community mobilizes resources and implements robust strategies to address these intertwined challenges\, ensuring the protection and well-being of vulnerable communities. The Washington Humanitarian Forum 2024 will feature conversations at the intersection of climate change\, conflict\, and finance. The intersection of these crises magnifies vulnerabilities\, leaving populations even more susceptible to extreme weather events and increased violence. The conference will spotlight this nexus and emphasize the imperative for swift and substantial climate financing to bolster resilience and alleviate human suffering. Join us as we explore innovative climate solutions\, forge new partnerships between sectors\, and advocate for urgent policy action to address the pressing challenges of climate change and conflict on a global scale. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Strengthening the middleground of the defense-industrial landscape
DESCRIPTION:The Atlantic Council | In-Person & Virtual Event \nDescription: Please join the Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security’s Forward Defense program for the next event in the Captains of Industry series titled “Strengthening the middleground of the defense-industrial landscape” on Monday\, May 13\, 2024\, from 3:30 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET at the Atlantic Council headquarters and via livestream. This event features a moderated discussion about the role middleground companies play to strengthen the defense-industrial ecosystem\, with John Goodman\, Chief Executive Officer\, Accenture Federal Services\, William J. Lynn III\, Chairman Chief Executive Officer of Leonardo DRS\, and Ellen M. Lord\, former Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition & Sustainment. The Pentagon’s National Defense Industrial Strategy (NDIS) expresses the imperative of “strengthening and modernizing our defense industrial base ecosystem” and sets priorities for meeting those challenges. In ecology\, middleground is the land which buffers and intermediates the needs of pristine nature and human-dominated spaces. So too\, in a healthy defense-industrial ecosystem\, do companies occupying the middleground between ubiquitous small companies and preponderant big ones play important\, salutary roles. The captains of industry assembled for this event will discuss issues that face these middleground companies\, and how public policies and corporate strategies can address them. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Transnational Organized Crime in Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:United States Institute of Peace | In-Person Event \nDescription: Southeast Asia has become a major breeding ground for transnational criminal networks emanating from China. These organizations operate illegal and unregulated online gambling and sophisticated scamming operations that steal an estimated $64 billion a year from millions of victims around the world. Their compounds — which frequently resemble penal institutions due to their reliance on forced labor — are often established in partnership with powerful local elites\, sometimes in urban centers of countries with weak or corrupt governance. From their foothold in Southeast Asia\, these criminal networks are increasingly building a presence elsewhere in the world\, with signs that they seek connectivity with organized criminal groups globally. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:North American Economic Security in an Era of Geopolitical Uncertainty
DESCRIPTION:Center for Strategic and International Studies | In-Person & Virtual event \nDescription:Join the Americas Program and the Canadian Chamber of Commerce for a discussion on the opportunities to strengthen North American economic security in an era of geopolitical uncertainty. The economies of the United States\, Canada\, and Mexico\, are highly integrated and underpinned by the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA). Together\, Canada\, the United States\, and Mexico comprise almost a third of global GDP. As governments and companies alike increasingly prioritize economic resilience and security in response to larger geopolitical forces\, there are significant opportunities for enhancing cross-continent trade and investment to the mutual benefit of all three countries. This event will bring together former trade negotiators from the three USMCA countries who will discuss the state of North American cooperation and integration as well as opportunities and challenges in the lead up to the 2026 USMCA review. It will also investigate the growing relevance of North American economic security as a shared policy objective\, delve into the political context\, pathways to greater economic integration\, as well as the major risks and opportunities facing businesses\, among other key issues. \nThe registration link can be found below.
