Mission Statement

Creating innovative and pragmatic solutions to global peace and security challenges.

About This Cause

The Stimson Center is a nonprofit and nonpartisan think tank that finds pragmatic solutions to global security challenges. In 2014 Stimson celebrated 25 years of pragmatic research and policy analysis to: Reduce nuclear, environmental and other transnational threats to global, regional, and national security. Enhance policymakers’ and the public’s understanding of the changing global security agenda. Engage civil society and industry in problem-solving to help fill gaps in existing governance structures. Strengthen institutions and processes for a more peaceful world. Stimson is effective and innovative. It develops path-breaking approaches to non-conventional challenges such as water management, wildlife poaching and responses to humanitarian crises. At the same time, Stimson plays a key role in debates on nuclear proliferation, arms trafficking and defense policy. The MacArthur Foundation recognized Stimson in 2013 with its “institutional genius” Award for Creative and Effective Institutions.
