Who We Are: The Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs is the hub of Harvard Kennedy School's research, teaching, and training in international security and diplomacy, environmental and resource issues, and science and technology policy. From terrorism and nuclear weapons to cybersecurity, climate change, energy, and diplomacy, the Belfer Center provides research, ideas, and leadership for a more secure, peaceful world. Directed by former Secretary of Defense Ash Carter and former Pentagon cyber czar Eric Rosenbach, the Center has been ranked the world's #1 University Affiliated Think Tank each year since 2014. What We Do: The Center has a dual mission: (1) to provide leadership in advancing policy-relevant knowledge about the most important challenges of international security and other critical issues where science, technology, environmental policy, and international affairs intersect; and (2) to prepare future generations of leaders for these arenas. How We Do It: The heart of the Belfer Center is its resident research community of more than 150 scholars, who through publications and policy discussions, workshops, seminars, and conferences, promote innovative solutions to significant international challenges.
