CURRENT PROGRAMS

The Howard Baker Forum was established in Washington, D.C. to provide a platform for examining specific, immediate, critical issues affecting the nation’s progress at home and its relations abroad. Under Senator Baker’s leadership, the Forum organizes a variety of programs and research projects to examine and illuminate public policy challenges facing the nation today.

US-Japan Roundtable

The Howard Baker Forum established the United States-Japan Roundtable to enhance cooperation between the two countries and improve public understanding of nuclear energy.

Cyber Medium Forum

The Howard Baker Forum has partnered with George Washington University’s Project for Media and National Security in the School of Media and Public Affairs to host a series of programs designed to give journalists access to in-depth conversations with key officials and industry sources, with the goal of a better-informed press corps and public. These events have gone back to in-person only following COVID-19 and are on background only due to the sensitivity of some of the matters discussed.

Chatham House Series
