International Relations Center

The IRC is working to make the U.S. a more responsible member of the global community by promoting progressive strategic dialogues that lead to new citizen-based agendas. Through their three key programs, Global Affairs, Right Web and Americas Program, the IRC provides independent, well-researched analysis of U.S. foreign policy, rooted in progressive values, with an emphasis on fostering strategic dialogue among academics, grassroots advocacy organizations, and policymakers. A "virtual think tank," our global partners develop policy briefs, special reports, talking points, commentaries, and other publications, most of which are widely disseminated for free to constituents around the globe.
