Overview
Pacific Forum CSIS is a unique American think tank, respected in Asia for understanding and listening to Asian concerns and in Washington for its careful representation to Asians of the nuances of U.S. policy positions and decisions. A grant to Pacific Forum would support a two-part project designed to increase the safety and security of the reactors that several Asian countries will acquire over the next 10 years. The first part of the project would reconstitute the Nuclear Energy Experts Group to bring together several Asia-Pacific countries to generate concrete proposals to increase the transparency of nuclear industries and promote nonproliferation standards in the region. The second part of the project would begin the process of establishing a US-Indonesia strategic dialogue that would help create common understanding on nonproliferation issues.

for the Energy Security and Climate Change Program
The Center for Strategic and International Studies is a policy research organization dedicated to advancing practical ideas to address the world’s greatest challenges. Achieving global energy transition requires reducing domestic emissions, while also incentivizing emissions reductions abroad. A clear vision for accomplishing this under different social and economic conditions is underdeveloped. This grant to the center’s Energy Security and Climate Change Program will support a cross-disciplinary research project to inform U.S. leadership in global decarbonization by increasing understanding of global trends and how U.S. public policy and trade strategies can influence international decarbonization. Working with a range of key stakeholders, including U.S. policymakers and diplomats, the private sector, academics, the press, and an advisory committee of leading academics and policy experts, this two-year effort will result in economic and policy studies, geopolitical research and analysis, conferencing, and educational products.
