Just a reminder....TOYOTA Auditorium - Free & open to the Public!
Mon., Sept. 19 @ 6 pm - Baker Center's Global Security Group presents
Ambassador Linton Brooks on "21st Century Nuclear Challenges."
Despite the nuclear programs of rogue states Iran and North Korea, the threat
of nuclear terrorism, increasing numbers of nuclear weapons in volatile or fragile
parts of the world like Pakistan, or the nuclear disaster in Japan - the nuclear
security agenda has receded in the national debate. Global stockpiles of
nuclear weapons, vulnerable nuclear material worldwide, and the byproducts of
nuclear energy production will remain among the central challenges to US
national security and global stability throughout the 21st century.
This event is also sponsored by the Hudson Institute, Partnership for a Secure
America, and the Stanley Foundation.
Sept. 20 @ 9:30 a.m. - "Trade Policy in Latin America" Natalie van der Horst is

the Bureau of Economic, Energy, and Business Affairs at the U.S. Department
of State. Her responsibilities include developing and implementing U.S. trade
policy for the countries of South America and Panama, expanding trade access
for U.S. goods and services in these countries, and coordinating bi-lateral
international economic dialogues with countries in her portfolio.
