Events At Usip

Congress charged the U.S. Institute of Peace, an independent, bipartisan leader in reducing and preventing conflict, with convening The Task Force on Extremism in Fragile States. The Task Force has developed a proposal for a new cost-effective, evidence-based, and coordinated preventive approach. Modest U.S. investments—if they are strategic, coordinated, well-timed, and sustained—can empower communities over time to better resist extremism on their own and motivate international donors to support this cause.   Panelists: Chris Milligan Counselor, The U.S. Agency for International Development Denise Natali Assistant Secretary, Bureau of Conflict and Stabilization Operations, U.S. Department of State Lieutenant General Michael Nagata Director for Strategic Operational Planning, National Counterterrorism Center Alina Romanowski Principal Deputy Coordinator for Counterterrorism, U.S. Department of State Ambassador Paula Dobriansky, moderator Senior Fellow for The Future of Diplomacy Project, Harvard U
