Security Policy Working Group (SPWG), a project of Proteus Fund, is a collaborative policy research consortium. We seek to fundamentally reshape security policy in the United States and to broaden and deepen the public discourse on what constitutes true security in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks. We emphasize multilateral, cooperative approaches that lessen the need for, and use of, military force.
SPWG members include individuals and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) representing decades of leadership in independent security policy research and analysis on a broad range of issues. These include: budget and economic considerations; military strategy; doctrine and options; counter-terrorism; homeland security; institutional reform and decisionmaking; and international relations and diplomacy.
Our expertise is strengthened through our collective commitment to aggressively and effectively communicate our research findings and alternative policy options to a wide range of audiences and constituencies.
