It Will Take a Village, Creativity, and Collaboration
The Fletcher Forum of World Affairs
Only recently has economic security played such an important role in national security. In a knowledge-based, inter-connected, global economy where technology enables productivity without geographical boundaries, information assets and formal intellectual property (IP) take on incredible importance. While the threat of cyber terrorism drives much fear, uncertainty, and doubt, “the largest threat is cyber espionage,” which, along with cybercrime, has incurred costs of approximately half a…
Only recently has economic security played such an important role in national security. In a knowledge-based, inter-connected, global economy where technology enables productivity without geographical boundaries, information assets and formal intellectual property (IP) take on incredible importance. While the threat of cyber terrorism drives much fear, uncertainty, and doubt, “the largest threat is cyber espionage,” which, along with cybercrime, has incurred costs of approximately half a trillion dollars, or about one percent of global income.

"When asked about the challenges faced by women in STEM careers, she says, 'Aside from ensuring they receive proper educational credentials, we need commitments from companies to build the pipeline and the processes that address retention. We need more sponsors, not just mentors — women need long-term career progression support from those who have the power to put them in available leadership roles, including at the Board level.' ”

In just over 24 hours, we have over 230 names of a wide variety of experts and over 100 more not yet added. They represent the spectrum of seniority, experience, political and policy views.
The overwhelming response has revealed a need for a resource for journalists and conference planners that is more accessible and comprehensive, both in field and people…"That escalated quickly. This list started with 15 names of women with insight on a particular issue of law and technology policy. In just over 24 hours, we have over 230 names of a wide variety of experts and over 100 more not yet added. They represent the spectrum of seniority, experience, political and policy views.
The overwhelming response has revealed a need for a resource for journalists and conference planners that is more accessible and comprehensive, both in field and people, than a list. FP Interrupted and Women Also Know Stuff are awesome examples of how scholars in foreign policy and political science are tackling the problem of public engagement representation—and resources everyone should now about. And Gender Avenger is taking on the 'man panel' without mercy.
Following their footsteps, we hope to have an announcement very soon about what this will become and how you can be involved. We’re pausing updating the list here—including the many names proposed but not yet added—to begin that transition.
For now, we will leave this up as a tiny sampling of the talent pool. Exhibit A: Anyone claiming 'no women were available,' just was not looking." -
