CISSM Global Forums featuring international policy-oriented speakers from the broader DC area have been a lunch-time tradition at SPP for over 30 years. We recently started hosting an annual event in honor of Catherine Kelleher and a monthly "military perspectives" series. CISSM also organizes special events that connect our community with policy experts from around the world.

CISSM Global Forums and special events bring together faculty, students, and practitioners to discuss how solving current policy challenges requires sophisticated understanding of factors and dynamics at the heart of our research and teaching agendas.
