Wilton Park expertise

Wilton Park Programme Directors combine breadth of international relations experience with a capacity to identify and develop emerging themes in policy trends at their very earliest stages.

Their backgrounds range from international institutions and the UK civil and diplomatic service to academia, journalism, NGOs, and the private sector. A range of nationalities are represented in keeping with Wilton Park’s internationalist tradition.

Programme Directors are often supported in the development and delivery of individual events by eminent visiting directors. View visiting director details.

Together with their conference teams, directors are at the centre of Wilton Park’s global network, developing partnerships with individuals and institutions around the word to solve intractable problems though policy dialogue.
