Themes
Each year the Academy brings together scholars, policy experts, and authors from both sides of the Atlantic and from different disciplinary perspectives to research and analyze a distinct policy theme of transatlantic interest. During the year fellows spend time both conducting their own individual research and developing a joint research project which results in one larger collaborative report.
