August 2012: The Tobin Project holds a workshop with the National Intelligence Council on the 2030 Global Trends Report

On August 23, the Tobin Project hosted a workshop with a group of Tobin's National Security Scholars and the National Intelligence Council (NIC) to provide feedback on a draft version of the Global Trends 2030 report. The report will be published this winter and will outline the intelligence community’s predictions for international political, economic, and social trends that could affect the U.S.’s power and prosperity over next two decades. The NIC publishes this report every four years and aims to stimulate strategic thinking among senior policymakers, particularly those in continuing or incoming administrations.
