International Peace and Security

The Foundation has established the Asia Security Initiative (PDF) to help increase the effectiveness of international cooperation in preventing conflict and promoting peace and security in Asia. The Foundation will support a network of policy research institutions and emerging leaders in pursuit of this goal.

Through its Science, Technology, and Security Initiative (PDF), the Foundation seeks to strengthen independent scientific and technical advice available to policymakers.

The Foundation’s grantmaking to address the threats posed by weapons of mass destruction is currently under review. New guidelines for International Peace and Security grantmaking will be posted in the spring of 2009.
