Meridian International Center is a nonpartisan, nonprofit diplomacy center founded in 1960 with the vision that greater understanding and collaboration between the United States and the world leads to a more secure and prosperous future for all. Headquartered in Washington, DC, on a four-acre campus with two historic properties, Meridian has long served as a place where global leaders gather, future leaders are found, and international collaboration thrives. We believe we are stronger at home when globally engaged, so our mission is to strengthen engagement between the U.S. and the world to find solutions on shared global challenges. We do this by partnering with the U.S. government, the private sector, and the diplomatic community on three core pillars of programs: Global Leadership: Building the next generation of global leaders empowered to create change through exchange and training programs Culture: Increasing understanding of the United States and other countries through shared interests in art and culture Collaboration: Strengthening policy decisions and outcomes by accelerating collaboration across borders, industries and sectors
