Overview
A grant to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace would expand and extend its project to explore the desirability and feasibility of developing international norms to limit the use of offensive cyber weapons. If funded, the Endowment would build upon its first round of promising interviews and research (conducted with funding by the Hewlett Foundation) to identify possible types of restraints that could be meaningful and acceptable to leading states, as well as a framework for adoption of such principles through unilateral, bilateral, or multilateral policy instruments.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Africa Program
The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace generates strategic ideas and independent analysis, supports diplomacy, and trains the next generation of international scholar-practitioners to help countries and institutions take on the most difficult global problems and advance peace. This grant is to support the endowment’s Africa Program to examine the opportunities and challenges, for African countries, of the changing landscape of the global trading environment. The organization will look at ways it can, in turn, leverage regional integration; trade agreements with global powers (including China, the U.S., and the EU); and multilateral institutions to shape this environment. (Substrategy: China National Policy)
for the Cyber Policy Initiative
A grant to the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace will support the continued growth of its Cyber Policy Initiative, a leading source of innovative and outcome-minded solutions to critical international security challenges in cyberspace. The initiative promotes greater stability and civility in cyberspace by developing strategies and policies and engaging key decision makers in government and industry worldwide. This grant furthers our field-building goals by sustaining an anchor think tank institution. (Strategy: Core Institutions)
