About Us
The Keystone Center seeks to solve our society’s most challenging environmental, energy, and public health problems. We bring together today’s public, private and civic sector leaders to confront these issues and we arm the next generation with the 21st Century intellectual and social skills required to effectively approach the questions they will face. Founded in 1975 by Robert W. Craig, The Center is a non-profit organization headquartered in Keystone, Colorado with offices in Washington, DC and Denver, CO.
Our staff brings unique and diverse knowledge, tools, and experience to its three primary areas of focus: energy, health, and the environment.
Keystone Center for Science & Public Policy
The Center for Science and Public Policy convenes leaders in the public, private, and civic sectors to solve problems and advance good public policy through neutral, independently organized, and well-managed discussions. In a society faced with increasingly complex issues, we are proud to be a leader in facilitating collaborative scientific and policy deliberations.
Assisted by expert science, careful convening, and skilled process design and management, we promote cooperative solutions with an eye toward creating enduring agreements and improved relationships through dialogue and consensus-based decision making. The results of this exciting and challenging work are tangible actions, new partnerships, and reduced conflict.
Today’s students will someday lead our communities – throughout government, industry, and the public sector. Keystone’s Center for Education is dedicated to providing those students and their teachers with original opportunities to acquire the skills that will allow them to excel in their professional and civic endeavors and benefit society in ways both innovative and practical.
Keystone Science School is a residential field science school that challenges students to develop critical thinking skills as they explore nature and science education. Making extensive use of the outdoor laboratory around us, we promote scientific inquiry and cultivate sensitivity to the natural environment.
We know that today's youth are our future leaders - the ones who will develop policies and make decisions that impact our world. With that in mind, we've created interactive science education programs that help students become familiar with scientific and critical thinking skills and encourage them to be engaged citizens.
