"At the McCain Institute for International Leadership at Arizona State University, we aren’t a think tank–we’re an action tank. Inspired by Senator John McCain’s legacy, our work is anchored by three core beliefs: securing democracy and alliances, promoting human rights and protecting the vulnerable, and advancing character-driven leadership in our own communities and around the world. Through programs that address security, economic opportunity, freedom and human dignity, we convene thought leaders to discuss solutions, build capacity among local leaders and create advocacy to propel our values forward."
