Overview
A renewal of funding to the Center for Strategic and International Studies would support its research and analysis on nuclear cooperation agreements and nuclear fuel cycle decisions—choices that will have a profound effect on the safety and security of nuclear material. The project focuses on two areas: renewal of the U.S.-Korea nuclear cooperation agreement that must be completed by 2014 and the merits of having a broader strategy for the U.S. government on fuel cycle negotiations with other countries. In the next five years, approximately thirteen U.S. nuclear cooperation agreements will need to be renegotiated and another four new agreements are currently under negotiation. The Center's project on nuclear cooperation agreements will encourage U.S. officials to consider the wider ramifications of endorsement of reprocessing of nuclear waste in the Korea 123 agreement, directly or indirectly, and facilitate coordination of policy across the U.S. government on these agreements.

Grants to this Grantee
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.

for creating a climate-positive space for the U.S. and China to advance global net-zero transition
This grant is to support the Center for Strategic and International Studies to rebuild the architecture for U.S.-China cooperation on transnational issues, particularly among non-state actors. It aims to reframe narratives around U.S.-China cooperation on shared global challenges, including health care, food security, and climate mitigation and adaptation. (Substrategy: China National Policy).
