Please join the Belfer Center for a Homeland Security Seminar with former Deputy Secretary of Homeland Security John Tien, a Belfer Center Senior Fellow and former National Security Fellow, and Faculty Chair of the Homeland Security Project Juliette Kayyem.

They will discuss the challenges facing America’s safety and security in a time of increased global threats and domestic unrest. Twenty years into the Department of Homeland Security's start, as it manages issues as far flung as immigration surges, domestic radicalization, and climate change, was the post-9/11 experiment in creating a new federal agency successful?

This event will be off-the-record and in person.

Please join the Belfer Center’s Defense Project for a seminar on the Boston Marathon Bombings featuring former Boston Police Commissioner Ed Davis, Juliette Kayyem, and Eric Rosenbach. The event will be held in the Allison Dining Room on Tuesday, April 4th from 3:30 - 4:30pm.

Attendance is limited to Harvard ID holders only. Please RSVP here.

Join W3D, in collaboration with the Future of Diplomacy Project and Diplomacy PIC, for a virtual conversation with Farah Pandith and Juliette Kayyem on the state of homeland security 19 years after 9/11. We'll discuss how homeland security has changed over that time, what new challenges it will face in the future, and more with two of the leading experts in the field! 

Please click here to RSVP for the virtual event.  Confirmed attendees will receive the Zoom link via email. 

Join the Cyber Project and the Defending Digital Democracy Project (D3P) as we convene tech, government, health, and policy experts in an important discussion on the federal government's efforts to work with tech companies and academia in using citizen data to track and mitigate the spread of COVID-19. 

Our main question: How do we get this right--to save lives and preserve privacy and security?

We will use this discussion to generate policy recommendations for the relevant task force working on this issue within the federal government. 

The Working Group will feature experts from Harvard Kennedy School, the Belfer Center, and MIT*
