The world is changing and the United States must change with it. A long list of complex 21st century trends confront U.S. leaders: accelerating global interdependence, the rise of new powers like India and China, a growing ecological crisis, and persistent under-development in key regions of the world, such as the Middle East and Africa.

Demos' International Program advances new ideas to cope with this changed world. Through research, policy development, and engagement in public debates, we seek to bring about four major outcomes:

• Greater public awareness of the realities of interdependence and a stronger worldwide movement for policies suitable to today's borderless world, including a more effective and democratic system of global governance.

• A more vigorous U.S. approach to international environmental policy to reflect the growing urgency of the global ecological crisis and to move this challenge to the forefront of U.S. global policy.

• A new U.S. strategy on trade, worker rights, and geo-economics that promotes a more inclusive global economy in which all peoples and nations share in the prosperity generated by markets, growth, and trade.

• A more active engagement of the American public in U.S. international policy to ensure that the democratic values that underpin our policies at home also guide American actions abroad. The U.S. in the World project leads our work in this area.
