Atlantic Council

The Atlantic Council is a nonpartisan organization dedicated to international affairs and global leadership. Founded in 1961 by notable figures such as former U.S. Secretaries of State Dean Acheson and Christian Herter, the Council aims to shape the global future through transatlantic collaboration and addressing contemporary challenges like economic shifts, security threats, and climate change. The Council engages in various activities, including policy development through research publications, hosting global forums for dialogue among policymakers and business leaders, and offering leadership programs to cultivate future leaders. It also maintains specialized centers, such as the Adrienne Arsht Latin America Center, to promote consensus across political divides. The Atlantic Council serves a diverse network of stakeholders, including government officials, business leaders, NGOs, and the general public, providing resources and insights to foster informed citizenship.
