the Fellows to debate and discuss key issues with some of the nations leading

foreign policy thinkers and practitioners. Each session will focus on encouraging

analytical approaches and fresh perspectives on a specic issue and will include a

recommended reading list. The program will also include opportunities for Fellows

to develop materials relevant to the Congressional agenda, such as one-minute

speeches, op-eds, and policy briefs. The participants will be involved in shaping the
