WHO WE ARE

A pioneering virtual think tank committed to inspire and empower the next generation of peace & security leaders in order to build a more secure and prosperous world.

NextGen 5.0 is a pioneering non-profit, independent, and virtual think tank committed to inspiring and empowering the next generation of peace and security leaders in order to build a more secure and prosperous world.

We consider their role to be not that of passive participants, but rather as powerful catalysts for positive change and key contributors of novel security solutions to current and future global problems.
