About CGRS
The RAND Center for Global Risk and Security reflects the need for a focal point for crosscutting, multidisciplinary research and analysis on the increasingly complex issue of global security. It draws on the unparalleled breadth of related RAND expertise—from strategy and health to technology and criminal justice—and expands upon the long history of RAND excellence in informing security policy by exploring innovative new areas of inquiry that cut across traditional perspectives. Led by an advisory board of distinguished individuals with rich and varied experiences in the areas of security and risk, the Center's mission is to develop a better understanding of the variety of security threats, and then decide on deeper research dives where the special range of RAND competences can make a difference in framing categories of possible response.
