San Diego Dialogue; Check It Out!

San Diego Dialogue, a self-funded public policy research center based at UCSD Extension, was founded in 1991 as a forum for discussion and consensus-building among the San Diego-Baja California cross-border community. Since its inception, the Dialogue has conducted research on long-term challenges and opportunities that the binational region faces, as well as encouraged the development and implementation of viable solutions to improve the crossborder regional quality of life.

Beginning in late 2004, San Diego Dialogue launched a major new program: Crossborder Innovation & Competitiveness Initiative. The goal of this initiative is to identify opportunities to strengthen the global competitiveness of high value-added, high technology industries in the San Diego-Baja California region. Such a goal involves not just economic linkages, but improvements in the human and physical infrastructure of the region, as well.
