Truman’s annual flagship event, TruCon, brings thought leaders from across government, civil society and the private sector to speak about the most pressing national security issues facing America today.
That’s a wrap! With riveting discussions and making news - announcing Truman’s new CEO - this was the best TruCon ever! Relive the highlights through links below.
TruCon emphasizes conversations that expand the boundaries of traditional national security discourse and elevate diverse perspectives, including by featuring members of the Truman National Security Project.
Every year, Truman recognizes public servants whose values have led them to do what’s right even when doing so might have been unpopular or posed personal risk.
Representatives Justin J. Pearson and Justin Jones
In keeping with this tradition, we are proud to honor Representatives Justin J. Pearson and Justin Jones as the recipients of this year’s Award for Exceptional Moral Courage.
Every year, the Truman Project and our sister organization, the Truman Center for National Policy, host a four-day event, TruCon. Some events are restricted to members, and others are open to the public. Leaders in the national security field speak to members about their work.
