OUR MISSION
Nothing in our lifetime can compare with to the health and economic desperation brought by the Coronavirus. Compounded by civil unrest in America’s streets and around the world, we can only wonder what the future holds.
The Washington Institute, committed to meeting the challenges facing the intersection of business, government, and society, is addressing that question as central to its mission. Working with the world’s greatest authorities and leaders in all fields, the Institute is resolute in tackling a global “total rethink” to delve into the world’s collective future. Through its own seasoned, accomplished team, its critical collaborations, and its dogged determination to find answers, it is unique among nonprofit organizations.
It is envisioning the acceleration of technology’s usage and security concerns, the need for more responsive corporate social action, and the dramatic changes and dynamics to the global economy. It is steering these trends in globally beneficial ways by collaborating with its partners to achieve tangible results. And people around the world are taking notice.
But to make its mission truly resonate and lasting, the Institute needs you. Your support can make the decided difference for the Institute in setting its nonpartisan, dogged agenda to help determine what the world’s path can and will be.

“The search for accountability and real-time problem-solving from leaders both in the public and private sectors has never been more critical. Frankly, bringing deep, extensive experience to address modern challenges and broker opportunities within business, government, and society was the rationale for founding our Washington Institute.”
–Jim Moore, Founder & CEO
