Cadets from the United States Military Academy at the Iraq: Moving Forward forum at Tufts University in January 2007
Alliance Linking Leaders in Education and the Services (ALLIES)
ALLIES was founded on the premise that the civilian population of the United States lacks significant knowledge about their own military. The civil-military gap is compounded by the limited academic opportunities for students at private liberal institutions across the United States to engage in these issues. The objective of ALLIES is to expand and integrate the ongoing collaboration between the Institute for Global Leadership at Tufts University and the military's educational institutions by fostering dialogue, encouraging joint research opportunities, creating activities between students at private liberal universities and our future military officers and servicemen, and to educate students on the role of the U.S. military at home and abroad. This new partnership between emerging leaders in the civilian and military sectors will promote cooperation capable of addressing dilemmas central to our common future. As the United States moves forward into an increasingly complex world, a comprehensive understanding between the civilian and military sectors will continue to be crucial. ALLIES will search for new and innovative ways to cultivate this relationship.
The New ALLIES website will be available shortly >>
