We engage on conflict prevention and resolution, providing thought leadership and strategic counsel to governments, the private sector and other stakeholders worldwide. We bring conflicting parties to the negotiating table, often for the first time, to find common ground. We anticipate global challenges and develop solutions relevant to policymakers and corporate leaders. true false 1550570 0 0 CYBERSECURITY INITIATIVE - EWI leads the global dialogue to reduce conflict, crime, and other disruptions in cyberspace and promote stability, innovation and inclusion. Global cooperation is essential to successfully address existing and emerging conflicts - both in cyberspace and, increasingly, across all areas of human endeavor. To this end, the EastWest Institute began its cyber work in 2009 as the pioneer organization that initiated a global dialogue on cyberspace security, diplomacy and deterrence. Past successes have helped shorten repair times for damaged undersea cables, reduce spam on a global basis, and build bilateral confidence and trust between East and West to improve crisis response and combat malicious hackers. Working with government, business and civil society leaders from around the world, the institute's cyberspace program has highlighted three objectives: to promote improved defenses to act as deterrents by increasing the costs and reducing the rewards of malicious cyber activities; to advocate for limits on offensive cyber capabilities; and to enhance operational collaboration across borders and among adversaries. In 2018, the program will continue to develop and advocate for recommended changes in national and corporate policies and procedures. The principle means of developing these recommendations is through the work of five collaborative breakthrough groups, composed of decision-makers from key sectors around the world: - Ubiquitous Encryption and Lawful Government Acces - Secure, Resilient Cities and the Internet of Things - Systemic Risk and Cyber Insurance - Promoting Norms of Responsible Behavior in Cyberspace - Increasing the Global Availability and Use of Secure ICT Products and Services 1430843 0 0 NETWORKING & COMMUNICATIONS - the organization's networking and communications is an essential link between ideas and policy.

Since 2008, the U.S.- China Sanya Initiative has regularly assembled retired U.S. and Chinese four-star generals and admirals to build greater military-to-military understanding between the two countries and to mitigate the chance of escalation and miscalculation. From 2010, EWIs U.S.- China High-Level Political Party Leaders Dialogue (P2P) has served as the only U.S.-China dialogue process involving sitting officials from the Communist Party of China and the U.S. Democratic and Republican National Committees. Launched in 2017 and building on EWIs track record in organizing Track 2 dialogues, the U.S.-Japan Military-to-Military Dialogue is a key piece of ongoing efforts to integrate more players from the Asia Pacific region into our programming and outreach. In 2018, EWIs Asia-Pacific program launched the following new initiatives, namely the Belt and Road webpage and database, the U.S.-China strategic roundtable series, the Asia-Pacific fellows network, and the South Asia Initiative. B) Russia and the United States - Since its founding, EWI has strived to bridge the strategic divide between Russia and the United States. Recognized as a trusted convener, EWI engages policymakers, business leaders and experts to achieve breakthroughs and deliver policy impact in critical areas affecting the bilateral relationship. In the context of Russias G8 Presidency in 2006, for instance, EWI launched a series of international public-private consultations on countering terrorism. In 2009, EWI brought together top Russian and American scientists for the first-ever Joint Threat Assessment, which focused on Irans nuclear and ballistic missile potential. The success of this project led to the creation of similar joint working groups addressing other critical issues of mutual concern, such as cyber security, Afghan narcotrafficking and terrorism in Afghanistan. 1172292 0 0 REGIONAL SECURITY 572989 0 0 TURKEY INITIATIVE 307172 0 300004 ECONOMIC SECURITY 2052453 0 300004 6216519 true true false false false false false false false true true false
