Actionable ideas for policies that affect our security and our relations with the world. This is the Wilson Center – and we’ve never been more needed than we are today.” Jane Harman Director, President, and CEO Dear friends, It is with great pleasure and pride that we share our annual report. Our scholars and experts represent more than a dozen geographically or topically focused programs and initiatives. They are global policy-shapers and headline-makers. Each year, our Fellowship Program hosts over 150 scholars from around the world. As one of the Center’s signature pillars, it is a testament to our lack of complacency and commitment to enriching policy discussions with worldly perspectives. By leveraging deep experience in government, academia, and other sectors, our experts and fellows offer strictly nonpartisan insight – and trusted foresight – in international relations, security and defense, trade, conflict-resolution, and much more. We encourage you to learn more about our work and our experts and fellows, and rely on them as a resource and a value- addition to you and your own work. They are at the heart of why the Wilson Center is ranked the #1 regional studies think tank and one of the top overall think tanks in the world.
