PROJECT 2025 A Blueprint for a Second Trump Administration
Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Diplomatist
|February 2025
With former President Donald Trump defeating Vice President Kamala Harris in the race for the White House, there is a policy agenda crafted in the run-up to the election that its organizers say is ready for the next Republican to hold the presidency called “Project 2025”.
Introduction
Project 2025 is an ambitious policy agenda developed by the Heritage Foundation, a leading conservative think tank, in preparation for the second term of Donald Trump as President of the United States. While Trump distanced himself from the project during his initial 2024 campaign, claiming a lack of formal affiliation, the policy document has gained considerable attention due to its sweeping proposals across all areas of governance. Its purpose is to redefine American politics, both domestically and internationally, by shifting the balance of power in favour of conservative principles while challenging established norms in governance, security, economics, and foreign policy.
The Heritage Foundation’s efforts to craft a detailed 900-page policy[i] manifesto called “Mandate for Leadership” began after the first year of Trump’s presidency, where approximately 64% of its recommendations were adopted. A fresh Mandate for Leadership[ii] has been released by the Heritage Foundation every four years since President Ronald Reagan assumed office in 1981. This close alignment between Trump’s administration and the Foundation’s proposals suggests that, under a second Trump term, Project 2025 could potentially reshape the political landscape of the U.S. profoundly.

Chile A Land of Poetry, Peace, and the Living Arts
Stretching gracefully between the Pacific Ocean and the mighty Andes mountain range, Chile is a nation that seems to hold the world's extremes: the driest desert in the north, glaciers in the south, and fertile valleys and vineyards in between. Yet beyond its natural wonders lies another richness: a deep and enduring love for art, poetry, and beauty.
