About US
Expert Analysis. Live Events. Global Impact.
The Atlantic Council of the United Kingdom is an independent, non-governmental charity organization dedicated to promoting peace, security, and international cooperation. Our mission is to educate and engage the public on the UK's role in global affairs, with a focus on the values outlined in the North Atlantic Treaty of 1949. Through research, dialogue, and strategic partnerships, we work to foster a better understanding of security challenges and diplomatic relations.
We are committed to:
Promoting awareness and understanding of NATO and its role in global peace and security.
Engaging policymakers, businesses, and the public in discussions on international security and diplomacy.
Providing expert policy analysis on emerging global threats affecting the UK and its allies.
Encouraging inclusive dialogue across different sectors of society to strengthen democratic values and the rule of law.
We provide expert insights into NATO’s role in global security, emerging threats, and UK defence policy.
Our work champions democratic values, human rights, and international law as the foundation for lasting peace.
We strengthen the UK's partnerships within NATO and other international alliances, fostering cross-border collaboration.
We analyse and interpret global political developments, offering strategic advice on international diplomacy.
We are particularly focused on engaging a uniquely broad cross-section of society, spanning not only fields of expertise but particularly age groups. Our ultimate aim is to work to help prevent war through building a healthy, vigorous and inclusive discourse on international affairs, facilitating dialogue across the most disparate parts of society.
We believe that education and discussion are essential for global stability. By engaging a broad audience, from experts to young learners, we strive to build a culture of active participation in international relations. Our initiatives include:
Public seminars and expert panels.
Educational programs for students and young professionals.
Policy briefings for businesses and decision-makers.
We host a variety of events, including high-level discussions, conferences, and networking opportunities, bringing together thought leaders and policymakers to address pressing global issues.
