The '''Manhattan Committee on Foreign Relations''' ('''M-CFR''') is an nonpartisan American Foreign Policy membership organization dedicated to advancing dialogue in international affairs. The Manhattan Committee is a chapter of The American Committees on Foreign Relations in [[Washington D.C.]].

==Mission==
The Committee's mission is promoting understanding of foreign policy and the United States' role in the world. Meetings are convened at which government officials, global leaders, and prominent members debate major foreign-policy issues. A central aim of the Manhattan Committee, it states, is to "find and nurture the next generation of foreign policy leaders."[http://www.nyccfr.org] At the outset of the organization the group's mission was to invite and educate prominent persons who have the ability to "guide" American public opinion.
