Aspen is a place for leaders to lift their sights above the possessions which possess them. To confront their own nature as human beings, to regain control over their own humanity by becoming more self-aware, more self-correcting, and hence more self-fulfilling.
In conjunction with the official launch of the Aspen Policy Academy on October 22nd, the Policy Academy will be hosting Action and Impact, a multi-city event series on pressing policy topics. Read below for more information on the DC event and to register! See here for more information on the Aspen Policy Academy.
The first event in the Action and Impact series will take place in Washington, DC on October 22nd from 4-7:30pm at the Aspen Institute DC headquarters (2300 N St. NW).

The event will also feature policy proposal presentations from alumni and networking opportunities, and culminate with a celebratory reception. You can view the event schedule here. More speakers and presentations are being added weekly!
Organized in partnership with Aspen Institute Germany and Aspen Institute Romania, the first-ever Socrates seminar in Montenegro will bring together leaders to explore the challenges of democratic backsliding, the importance of rule of law, and the essence of values-based leadership.
Join us for this exclusive Critical Conversation, moderated by Vivian Schiller, internationally renowned former media executive, current Aspen Institute Vice President and Executive Director of Aspen Digital. ‘Will We Ever Trust the News Again’ will examine the challenges facing the industry – and crucially, the promising paths towards a solution.
