The '''Atlantic Initiative''' (German:Atlantische Initiative) is an association founded in [[Berlin]] in [[2004]] to “promote German-American friendship and the promotion of science and research in the field of international relations”. With its work, the association wants to make a contribution to strengthening [[transatlantic]] relations and steer foreign policy in certain directions.
 
 
 
==People==
 
The board of the association consists of [[Johannes Bohnen]] and [[Jan-Friedrich Kallmorgen]], the two partners in Bohnen & Kallmorgen, a consultancy for political analysis and strategic communication, who founded and built up the Atlantic Initiative. Both board members are or were also active as [[lobbyists]] for corporations and trade associations. The partner Jan-Friedrich Kallmorgen is also the managing director of the [[European Investor Protection Association]]. When it was current around 2015, the Atlantic Initiative dealt in particular with the free trade agreement [[Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership]] (TTIP), which also includes [[investor protection]].
 
 
 
==Projects==
 
*Monthly newsletter "Global Must Reads", a best-of of the analyzes from over 50 American and European think tanks, magazines and journals.
 
*Open think tank atlantic-community.org
 
*Blog Germany's Agenda
 
*Discussion events/congresses
 
 
 
The Atlantic Initiative regularly organizes so-called policy workshops on this page, in which the best contributions are awarded, memos are created and the recommendations are also presented at events.
 
 
 
===Germany's agenda===
 
 
 
In November [[2011]], the association initiated the blog <i>Germany Agenda</i>. With the self-chosen motto "foreign policy for all", the association here offered a forum for discussion about German foreign policy. This project was funded by the Federal Press Office and the [[Haniel Foundation]] until the end of April 2012. The [[German Federal Foreign Office]], [[BMW Foundation Herbert Quandt]], [[German Armed Forces Association]], [[BP]] and the [[Allianz Kulturstiftung]] have been supporting this project since May 2012. <ref>http://atlantische-initiative.org/forderer-spenden/</ref>
 
 
 
The aim of the blog is to formulate “memos” with recommendations for action for politicians from the debates there. A first memo to the [[Bundeswehr]] was published in March 2012, a second memo on German foreign policy in the Asia-Pacific region in November 2012.
 
 
 
===Global Must Reads===
 
Since August 2005 the association has published the monthly Global Must Reads; these are a summary of important articles from specialist journals, the corporate press and science. According to a statement by the Atlantic Initiative, the Global Must Reads are “the most far-reaching foreign policy publication in German” with a readership of more than 22,000 people. Despite the association's name, the Atlantic Initiative is not limited to selecting topics for the Must Reads on German-American relations, but also addresses topics such as digital security and women in management positions.
