British-American Project
The British-American Project is a fellowship of over 1,000 leaders and opinion formers from a broad spectrum of occupations, backgrounds and political viewpoints, drawn in equal numbers from the United States and the United Kingdom. The Project was created to renew and continue the close relationship among leaders of the two countries that was established by an earlier generation during the Second World War; for that reason, it was originally known as the British-American Project for the Successor Generation. The first gathering took place in 1985.
The Project meets annually for a four-day conference on a topic of current concern to both countries: ideas and experiences are exchanged, and friendships developed and strengthened. Each year, 24 new participants are selected from either side of the Atlantic, on the basis of service to their communities and professional achievement, and sponsored to attend the conference as Delegates. At the end of each conference, Delegates are elected Fellows of the Project. Fellows from past years attend the annual conferences at their own expense, with many returning in successive years.
==Goals==
According to Sir Charles Villiers, a British businessman, and the American Lewis Van Dusen, Jr., head of a major Philadelphia law firm and a Rhodes Scholar, who married a British woman from his time in England, the goal, or the dream, was to enable a younger generation to develop a multiplicity of transatlantic friendships like their own. This was what attracted Villiers to the concept of the British-American Project when he first heard of it in London, and it was what Van Dusen also liked when they first discussed it in Philadelphia. They founded the organization in 1985.
A US BAP organiser describes the BAP network as committed to “grooming leaders” while promoting “the leading global role that (US and Britain ) continue to play”.
