The Heritage Foundation has recently announced the formation of the Project 2025 Advisory Board, the first major initiative of the Presidential Transition Project 2025 since its launch in April.

The Foundation is open to working with a variety of partners, including international organizations, private sector entities, civil society organizations, and low- and middle-income countries.
