PUBLIC POLICY & RESEARCH - Our vision is to create free, open, and civil societies founded on libertarian principles. To that end, our scholars and analysts conduct and publish independent, nonpartisan research on a wide range of policy issues across more than 14 research areas, including law and civil liberties, tax and budget policy, regulatory studies, health care and welfare, education, finance, banking and monetary policy, foreign policy and national security, trade policy, and international development.

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM - Cato hosts public events and conferences in order to engage diverse audiences on our research and policy prescriptions, and also proactively invests in the next generation through its student programs. These include our Cato Internship Program and John Russell Paslaqua Intern Seminar Series, our weekend Liberty Seminars for students, and our Student Briefing Program, which teaches high school and college students from around the country about Americas founding principles of individual liberty, limited government and free enterprise.
