Nonprofit UAP institution launched in 2023 that frames “post-UAP” realities as a cross-domain problem—science, policy, law, culture, and security—seeking legitimacy through curated experts and formal outputs.
Built visibility via annual symposia and “white paper” style publications that treat UAP as a governance challenge, advocating disclosure pathways, reporting reforms, and evidence standards rather than tabloid UFO storytelling.
Controversial by design: praised for professionalizing UAP discourse with credentialed participants, criticized for mixing academic branding with extraordinary claims that remain difficult for the public to independently verify.
Alleged insider “bird-codename” network said to steer UFO narratives via selective leaks, ambiguity, and credibility laundering.
Frequently linked (by critics) to 1980s-era disinformation / “perception management” around the Bennewitz/Dulce mythology and related rumors.
Often tied (directly or indirectly) to MJ-12 era document lore, “insider briefings,” and media-friendly talking points that shaped modern UFO culture.
Remains disputed: supporters frame it as informal discussion among security/science figures; critics frame it as an influence operation targeting ufology.
