The Aspen Institute Inc

Campus activities: in addition to its headquarters in washington, dc, the aspen institute also conducts much of its work on its founding campus in aspen, colorado, which provides natural beauty and quiet surroundings that encourage thoughtful reflection and refreshes mind, body and spirit. One of our programs that use the campus is our aspen executive seminar which challenges individuals to think more deeply, listen more attentively, and refine their ability to lead in an increasingly complex and conflicting world. Seminar participants engage in challenging conversations about enduring questions of ethical and effective leadership, gaining a greater capacity to lead with courage and conviction.

Public programs: the institute's public programs are designed to freely disseminate the organization's ideas and to provide the public with opportunities to convene inclusively and engage in thoughtful, nonpartisan dialogue. Our major events include the aspen ideas festival, aspen ideas health, the aspen security forum, city lab and aspen words. These and our other public forums engage over 15,000 members of the general public annually.

The center for rising generations is dedicated to ensuring that civil dialogue, civic engagement, and leadership development become a predictable part of the journey to adulthood in our society and around the world. The center for rising generations:- works to expand opportunities for, and elevate the voices of, youth & young adults at the aspen institute,- creates opportunities to convene and build community beyond aspen,- encourages innovation that helps emphasize the assets that young people bring to help address today's challenges.
