The WPS Committee seeks to facilitate the integration of National and DoD WPS policy into NPS education programs in a variety of ways to include: contributing to activities designed to inform, train, and educate the NPS community about WPS efforts and objectives; conducting research and curriculum development on topics of relevance, and collaborating with other U.S. government, non-government and academic organizations and U.S. government’s allied and partner nations’ governments; representing NPS at conferences and events; responding to data calls; and synchronizing efforts with Department of the Navy (DON) WPS points of contact, DOD Joint Staff (JS), JS Global Policy and Partnerships, and the Office of the Secretary of Defense (SECDEF) for Policy, Stability & Humanitarian Affairs (the lead DOD entities for WPS). The Committee actively contributes to the compilation of annual reports on WPS topics in NPS response to SECDEF and DON data calls.
