Security & Defence Agenda (SDA) publications offer an accessible approach to security and defence issues, combined with policy relevance and topicality.
Monthly Roundtable reports
Since its early 2002 launch, the SDA has established itself as the sole Brussels think tank dedicated to NATO and EU security policy issues. Its regular Roundtables attract a Who’s Who of policy makers, politicians, senior defence industry executives, academics, NGOs and journalists.
Annual Conference reports
To enable senior players in government and industry to assess issues and emphasise key policy messages, the SDA organises several one-day international conferences every year that attract speakers and participants from around the world.
Evening Debate and Press Lunch reports
To help journalists and policy makers understand the issues and establish personal relationships with key figures, the SDA regularly hosts on-the-record dinners and lunches for the press and senior military, political and industrial leaders.
Discussion Papers
To raise awareness of how EU and NATO policies can complement one another, and how global challenges such as terrorism, regional conflicts and weapons of mass destruction can be met the SDA regularly publishes topical Discussion Papers.
