Overview
The Berkeley Art Museum/Pacific Film Archive at the University of California at Berkeley is home to an internationally renowned center for the preservation, study, and presentation of cinema. Pacific Film Archive offers more than 350 public programs and film screenings each year to 39,000 visitors showcasing its collection of more than 16,000 historically significant films from across the globe. Project support for the Pacific Film Archive would support the organization’s plan to maintain its film programming and conclude a $100 million capital campaign as it prepares to move into a new seismically sound building in downtown Berkeley in early 2016.

Grants to this Grantee
for the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity
A grant to the University of California at Berkeley will support the ongoing work of the Center for Long-Term Cybersecurity, the home of this research and engagement at the university. The center focuses on both the “cyber” and “security” components of cybersecurity, grounding efforts in a robust, flexible, and evolving understanding of the “possibility” space of cybersecurity. Research will focus on possible security scenarios and explore the technical, political, and economic intersection of these potential futures. The aim of this approach is to foster interdisciplinary collaboration within the center as well as to add diversity to the cybersecurity conversation. The center brings together academics from the School of Information, the School of Law, Computer Science, the Goldman School of Public Policy, and the College of Engineering, among others. It also engages external stakeholders in all facets of this work, including in outreach efforts. (Strategy: Talent Pipeline)
