The Economist

If you only ever read one periodical, this is the one that will make you the most informed and thoughtful person in any room. With a promise to help you, “Make sense of the world with our independent, in-depth analysis,” The Economist goes far beyond what most newspapers do while still maintaining an accessible style.

The CIPHER Brief

Focused exclusively on bringing a higher level of confidence around national security events via news, analysis, and interviews with government and private sector leaders. Where other news organizations tell you what happened, The Cipher Brief tells you what it means. 

MyDiplomat App

A free education tool that places students in the shoes of global problem solvers. The app leads players through creative group simulations, challenging them to think and speak about global issues from the perspective of another country.

Inkstick Media

Offering a completely (and refreshingly!) nontraditional voice in the field, Inkstick Media breaks down the news you want and need to know without droning on. When it matters, it also dives deeper to show you the people behind the policy and the stories they have to tell.

Foreign Affairs

A forum for serious discussion of American foreign policy and global affairs published by the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), which is a non-profit and nonpartisan membership organization dedicated to improving the understanding of U.S. foreign policy and international affairs through the free exchange of ideas.
