By statute, the Wilson Center Board of Trustees includes several ex officio members - the Secretary of State, the Secretary of Health and Human Services, the Secretary of Education, the Chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, the Secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, the Librarian of Congress, and the Archivist of the United States- as well as nine members appointed by the Presi. [...] Some of the finest thinkers and scholars in the world come to the Center to participate in meetings or to conduct research and write as visiting fellows. [...] The Center continues to evolve through constant review and strategic planning to ensure the focus is on the most important issues of today and the future. [...] This area also supports the Wilson Center's flagship individual fellowship grant program (the basis for the living memorial to the 281h President) and provides support for conferences, research, and emerging foreign policy issues to serve policy makers and the public with increased reach and dissemination of knowledge. [...] The aim of the Wilson Center Fellowship Program is to connect with and amplify the objective of providing an essential link between the worlds of ideas and public policy.
