Innovation & Learning
Ms. Tally Helfont joined the Institute for Security Governance (ISG) in February 2019 as a contractor, and then transitioned to a government role as ISG's Strategic Communications & Outreach Lead in March 2021. Ms. Helfont's work lies at the intersection of internal and external communications, partnership, and outreach, and drives internal and external messaging; engages with stakeholders, practitioners, collaborators, and partner nation counterparts; facilitates advanced planning; and ensures data management, access, and integrity.
Prior to joining ISG, Ms. Helfont was the Founding Director of the Foreign Policy Research Institute’s (FPRI) Program on the Middle East, as well as the Project Lead for its “After the Caliphate” Project. Her research focused on the regional balance of power, Jordan, the Gulf States, and US policy therein.

As a Terrorism Analyst for a D.C. Think Tank, she supported government agencies on high-profile terrorism-related cases and served as a consultative expert in the federal prosecutions of Palestinian Islamic Jihad members and their US affiliates. She also delivered training sessions on counter-terrorism research methodology to federal law enforcement agents on behalf of the Department of Homeland Security.
