Last weekend was the 20th anniversary of the attacks of September 11, and
Americans marked the occasion with remembrances and clear-eyed
conversations about what came after. In a [2]discussion with foreign policy
leaders and experts, the [3]Aspen Strategy Group invited speakers to
recount their memories of the day and assess the world-changing decisions
that the US made after it. Reflecting on the 9/11 milestone and the recent
withdrawal of troops from Afghanistan, panelists discussed [4]potential
shifts in national security and diplomatic strategies.

[7]Using Faith to Foster Inclusivity

[8]Where religious pluralism is not the norm, grassroots leaders are
connecting their faith to a vision of a more inclusive America and
mobilizing others to do the same. Many evangelical leaders say the country
is changing, and rather than retreating into their communities of faith,
they are reaching out to meet their neighbors. [9]Learn more from the
Institute’s [10]Inclusive America Project.

[14]The Importance of Worker Voices

Workers are a source of innovation and experience that can help
corporations solve pressing issues. Over the past year, the [15]Idea Lab on
Worker Voice in Corporate Governance has been exploring policies,
practices, and structures of corporate decision-making systems. This team
of researchers, part of the Institute’s [16]Business & Society Program,
hopes their work will lead to healthier companies, happier workers, and a
more robust national economy.

[20]Diversifying Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity is a predominantly white and male field; research
[21]indicates only 4% of cybersecurity workers self-identify as Hispanic,
9% as Black, and 24% as women. [22]Aspen Digital and the [23]Aspen Tech
Policy Hub recently issued a series of [24]recommendations to diversify the
industry, with wider, national implications. Speaking to [25]The Washington
Post, Aspen Tech Policy Hub Deputy Director Mai Sistla said, “If you don’t
have a diverse industry, there are all these perspectives you’re
missing.”
