EWI is an independent international nonprofit institu-tion created in 1980 to make the world a safer and better place. Thanks to our extensive global network, EWI is able to convene leaders from government,

business and civil society in informal settings to discuss the world’s most intractable security problems. Our purpose is to build trust between the developed world and the Emerg-ing East, influence policy and deliver innovative solutions.

This year, EWI celebrates its 30th anniversary. Founded by John Edwin mroz and Ira Wallach at the height of the Cold War, EWI initially worked to build bridges between russia and the United states. After the fall of the Berlin Wall, EWI worked to foster economic stability in the region, encour-aging international cooperation and helping prepare a new generation of leaders. We pioneered cross border coopera-tion in the Balkans and spun off 10 EWI centers in Central and Eastern Europe and the former soviet Union. In the past decade, EWI’s operations have expanded to China, south-west Asia and the middle East. Our work focuses on the en-gagement of major powers, including russia, China, India and the United states.

One of EWI’s greatest strengths is our responsiveness to world events and willingness to undertake the newest – and toughest – security problems. most recently, EWI took steps to help end the longstanding distrust between Afghanistan and Pakistan through a discreet series of meetings in Abu Dhabi and Kabul. We enabled Chinese and American politi-cal leaders to talk frankly in Washington, D.C., and Beijing about decision making and politically sensitive issues. We launched a truly worldwide cybersecurity initiative, bring-ing together top private sector, government and technical experts from more than 40 countries to protect our shared digital infrastructure.

In the past 30 years, the world has changed dramatically, but one thing has remained the same: the EastWest Institute’s commitment to convene those who don’t work together, re-frame issues and mobilize resources to make a difference.

We were there when the Wall stood. A fiercely independent orga-nization with strong links to policymakers, EWI built trust between leaders on both sides of the Iron Curtain. In 1984 EWI hosted the first ever Track 2 military-to-military dialogue meetings between nATO and the Warsaw Pact countries, among other steps to help end the Cold War.

The 80s:EnDInG THE COLD WAr

The 90s:rEBUILDInG sOCIETIEs

We were there when the Wall fell, and localized conflicts erupted across Eastern Europe. From the Balkans to russia, EWI worked to bring economic stability, foster entrepreneurship, and establish crossborder initiatives to promote regional cooperation. From Ka-liningrad to Belgrade, several of our strongest initiatives became independent nGOs that still operate today.

The new millennium:nEW CHALLEnGEs

We were there when the towers fell. Extending our geographic en-gagement, we worked to counter violent extremism, address cy-bersecurity and build strategic trust between China, russia, India and the West. EWI operates the Abu Dhabi Process on cooperation between Afghanistan and Pakistan, mobilizing key actors to take preventive action against a growing array of potential conflicts.

EWI’s ECOnOmIC sECUrITy InITIATIvE

Launching

For 30 years, EWI has maintained a reputation for being at the cutting edge of traditional security, economics and preventive diplomacy. Our strength is in convening those who don’t yet work together from East and West on current and emerging

threats and reframing and mobilizing resources to get things done. This initiative will complement and strengthen the economic security work in the other two initiatives of EWI, strategic Trust Building and regional security.

The decade ahead will be a time of profound uncertainty and wide-spread economic uncertainty. Political and social demands for eco-nomic growth and job creation worldwide are not being met. With the world’s population growing from six to nine billion by 2040, a burgeon-ing and demanding middle class arising around the globe and finite natural resources from water to energy, sustainability has become a major global security issue. The nexus of growth and sustainability presents immense challenges and opportunities that only a new form of East–West, private–public partnership can address.

meanwhile, the traditional global security providers of the United states and Europe are less able to assume the financial burdens of meeting the rising challenges to stability and peace. A new internation-al system including collective security must be forged.

EsI is designed to serve as a catalyst, to bring together those tradi-tionally responsible for economic development with the security and investment communities in a “think and do” entrepreneurial model.

There is an immediate need for East and West to co-create a new in-ternational order that helps assure economic security. Investors and the global private sector have a crucial role to play, as do other non-

traditional security actors. Traditional channels of discourse and policy making need to be augmented by outside catalysts capable of bring-ing together the best from the private and public sectors in the East and West to reframe issues, identify solutions and mobilize resources. EsI is designed to serve as such a catalyst – bringing together those traditionally responsible for economic development with the security and investment communities in a “think and do” entrepreneurial model required to move the ball down the field.

IEEE

IEEE is the world’s largest professional association dedicated to advanc-ing technological innovation and excellence for the benefit of humanity. IEEE and its members inspire a global community through IEEE’s highly cited publications, conferences, technology standards, and profession-al and educational activities.

In 2009, in cooperation with EWI, the IEEE made its first foray into policy with the publication of the rOGUCCI report, a groundbreaking analysis of the international undersea communications cables that carry 99 per-cent of transcontinental Internet traffic. This report, which produced 12 actionable solutions by addressing these highly vulnerable networks as a single challenge instead of many minor challenges, has unquestion-ably altered the policy landscape for the better.

Accepting the award on behalf of the IEEE are President Curtis siller, Ex-ecutive Director Jack Howell, and robert Kahn, co-inventor of TCP and IP protocols - the fundamental protocols at the heart of the Internet.

senator robert P. Casey, Jr.

U.s. senator Bob Casey has made it his top priority to help create and incentivize the creation of family-sustaining jobs and to help workers who lost their jobs through no fault of their own. As the Chairman of the Joint Economic Committee, senator Casey is providing Pennsylvania and the nation with a stron-ger voice on economic policy and has focused on strategies to help American manufacturers create jobs.

senator Casey has voted to provide billions for tax cuts to encourage businesses to hire workers, and he voted for legislation that provided tens of billions in capital for small businesses to expand their operations. He has been a strong critic of unfair trade policies that put American manufacturing at a disadvan-tage and has repeatedly pushed for the U.s. government to take stronger action against China in response to the undervaluing of its currency and other policies that result in American job loss. He also voted for legislation to eliminate tax incentives corporations receive to send U.s. jobs overseas.

senator Casey is the Chairman of the near Eastern and south and Central Asian Affairs subcommittee of the Foreign relations Committee, which has jurisdic-tion over the United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Israel and the middle East. He is a leader in promoting nuclear security and combating the threat posed by terrorists obtaining nuclear material.

To protect our troops in Afghanistan, senator Casey has been the senate’s leader to increase international pressure to stop the flow of ammonium nitrate, a prime component in IEDs that have killed or wounded thousands of troops and civilians. senator Casey is also working with the Department of Defense and state Department to make sure they have the tools they need to stop the IED assembly line.

Throughout his public career, senator Casey has been guided by the legacy of his father and the principle that: “All public service is a trust, given in faith and accepted in honor.”
