Programs

The N7 Congressional Fellowship is a prestigious, nonpartisan, eight-month program exclusively for US Congressional staff, designed to connect them with the Atlantic Council’s N7 network. This fellowship provides an invaluable opportunity for participants to engage with the N7 team, Atlantic Council senior leadership, and prominent experts and dignitaries within the N7 network. This is an unpaid fellowship.

Fellows will participate in a series of exclusive, off-the-record roundtable dinners in Washington, D.C., fostering in-depth dialogues on issues impacting our partners and opportunities to enhance cooperation between the United States, Israel, and US Arab and Muslim partners.  The fellowship will culminate in a capstone trip to the region, where fellows will engage with key figures from government, civil society, and the private sector in a select country or countries. 

Ideal candidates are Congressional staff with demonstrated leadership experience in the Middle East, strategic competition, economic cooperation, or another relevant topic. Candidates engaged in regional integration efforts, such as the Abraham Accords Caucus are strongly encouraged to apply. Applicants should reside in the greater Washington, D.C. area and be available to attend the majority of evening roundtables in order to qualify for the capstone trip.
