Project Title
For the web portal, "Russia Matters"
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
24 months
Description
There is a systemic lack of knowledge of Russia among U.S. policymakers and shapers, despite the fact that the policies of Russia affect U.S. national interests profoundly. The decline of Russia expertise in the United States has occurred even though in many respects Russia-related graduate training and research there has remained strong. The drop is dangerous, given the ways that Russia continues to matter to the United States. A team at the Belfer Center of Harvard University (Belfer) proposes to launch a web portal that would become a single go-to web site on all things Russia. It would generate in-depth analysis and build expert capacity. The proposed portal would partner with U.S. organizations and individuals that possess the best expertise on Russia to generate analysis and products on Russia and U.S. policies toward the country.

Project Title
For general support
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
24 months
Description
The years ahead in the Greater Middle East”—the broad stretch of countries ranging from Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan to the Gulf States and those in North Africa—
will continue to be critical. The fate of the people in the region will be deeply affected not only by their own leaders’ decisions but also by the reactions of outside parties to the various conflicts. These urgent and interrelated problems call out for greater dialogue across dividing lines, increased understanding of differing threat perceptions, and, above all, the need to avoid military conflict in this area where nuclear risks are present. The Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs (Pugwash) seeks to help address these complicated and interrelated challenges through continuation of its longstanding intraregional, multinational Track II workshops.

Project Title
For a workshop to train journalists ahead of the 2016 Nuclear Summit
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
6 months
Description
Atomic Reporters (AR) was created to support better informed reporting on nuclear issues. This project will support a workshop for journalists in advance of the 2016 Nuclear Security Summit. The workshop, in Rotterdam, Netherlands, will engage twenty journalists from the Americas, Asia and Europe, including Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine. It will introduce the selected journalists to the nuclear security measures that are being implemented at one of the world’s major ports, where nuclear and radioactive materials are frequently detected. Further field work may include a visit to facilities producing radioisotopes and storing nuclear waste. These activities will provide material for stories as well as background knowledge to provide context for the Summit process and nuclear security issues more broadly.

As one-time only funding for a project on Iran after the nuclear deal
Date
Dec. 10, 2015
Duration
25 months
Description
Despite current attention given to the historic agreement that will prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, there has been little consideration paid to the implications, challenges, and opportunities that would exist in the aftermath of the deal for both Iran and the region. A project of the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace (the Endowment) will assemble a core team of experts from these domains and link them with Endowment scholars from its Brussels, Moscow, and Beijing offices, as well as its Washington, D.C.-based Nuclear Policy Program. Together, they will offer a comprehensive net assessment of Iran, the region, and the U.S. role in a post-nuclear deal environment, focused on Iran’s domestic politics and political economy, its foreign policy and relations with regional actors and international powers, and the opportunities for U.S.-Iran regional cooperation.
