Mission Statement
Discovery Institute's mission is to make a positive vision of the future
practical. The Institute discovers and promotes ideas in the common sense tradition
of representative
government, the free market and individual liberty. Our mission is promoted
through books, reports, legislative testimony, articles, public conferences
and debates,
plus media coverage and the Institute's own publications and Internet
website (
http://www.discovery.org ).
Current projects explore the fields of technology, science and culture, reform
of the law, national defense, the environment and the economy, the future of
democratic institutions, transportation, religion and public life, government
entitlement spending, foreign affairs and cooperation within the bi-national
region of "Cascadia." The efforts of Discovery fellows and staff, headquartered
in Seattle, are crucially abetted by the Institute's members, board and sponsors.
