About This Cause

The Global Security Institute works through its leadership and programs: Bipartisan Security Group (BSG) – educating the US Congress For meaningful progress to be made in reducing nuclear dangers, the United States must be pushed to take an active leadership role. The Bipartisan Security Group consists of Republican and Democratic experts with experience in diplomacy, law, intelligence and military affairs. BSG supports Members of Congress by providing reliable information and critiques of global security issues. An emphasis is placed on multilateralism and strengthening the rule of law. BSG is led by veteran diplomats Ambassador Robert T. Grey, Jr., and Ambassador Thomas Graham, Jr. Middle Powers Initiative (MPI) – targeting key governments MPI is a network of eight international NGOs chaired by Hon. Tarja Cronberg of Finland. MPI works directly with diplomats and middle power governments, often with their support at the highest levels, to promote legal solutions that support the elimination of nuclear weapons. MPI sends delegations of experts to meet with leaders, produces briefing papers that are widely read among government officials, works closely with the United Nations, and convenes strategy consultations for diplomats at the UN. Parliamentary Network for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Disarmament (PNND) – Parliamentarians, because of their close relationship to constituents, have a crucial role to play in crafting policies that meet the security needs of the world's people. However, they frequently do not have access to the information, ideas and techniques necessary to take positive, concrete actions. (PNND) provides parliamentarians worldwide with up to date information and helps coordinate policy initiatives. There are over 800 active members in over 80 nations. GSI leaders actively play leading roles many organizations such as the International Law Section of the American Bar Association’s Task Force on Nuclear Nonproliferation, the Parliament of the World’s Religions, the World Academy of Arts and Science, the United Religions Initiative, and the Permanent Secretariat of the Nobel Peace Laureate Summits.
