It’s challenging to talk about security issues.

Polling data and focus groups tell us that the public is looking for a new approach to national security and foreign policy, and they want that new approach now.

Often talking about national security can drive people to see the world in an “us vs. them” way. If what you want is for people to recognize the need for a more cooperative, responsible, and constructive US foreign policy, then you need our message builder.

Talking About the Connection Between U.S. and Global Security helps you prepare spoken and written messages about security for your audience. By offering a framework of ideas and suggestions based on findings from an extensive synthesis and analysis of polling and focus group data, the message builder allows communicators to find their own voice and tailor messages to their own needs and issues.
