2025 LGBTQIA+ Out in National Security Leadership and New Voices List
Out in National Security and New America are pleased to honor over 30 LGBTQIA+ experts in U.S. national security and foreign policy.
A project of Planetary Politics
Meaning of Security explores the evolving landscape of U.S. national security in a world where traditional threats intersect with global crises like pandemics, climate change, domestic extremism, and systemic injustice. The initiative examines how these complex, interconnected challenges demand new strategies and policy tools that go beyond conventional paradigms. By integrating domestic and international perspectives, we advance research and dialogue to help policymakers and the public rethink what it means to keep people and communities safe.
