The Center’s mission is to provide critical insights on domestic and international challenges through research, education and policy engagement to honor the life and legacy of Senator Baker. The Center seeks to accomplish this mission by leveraging the expertise of jointly-appointed interdisciplinary faculty, who lead the Center’s programs, and through the contributions of more than thirty fellows drawn from academia, public service, and industry. Together, these thought-leaders conduct research on pressing policy challenges, producing peer-reviewed publications as well as policy briefs, white papers, and public lectures.
