The Arms Control Negotiation Academy ACONA Fellowship
The Arms Control Negotiation Academy (ACONA) is a 12-month, high-level professional development program for a competitively selected cohort of rising international security experts and practitioners.
The ambitious training curriculum addresses critical historical case studies, technological know-how, and advanced negotiation skills in the realm of arms control. Participants attend three negotiation boot camps, earn a Certificate in Arms Control Negotiation, and become part of the ACONA network of next-generation arms control negotiators.
The ACONA Fellowship Term is July 1, 2020 – June 30, 2021.
ACONA Fellows will hone their negotiation techniques through immersive exercises; study arms control topics with preeminent experts; conduct joint research on pressing international security issues; and develop professional and interpersonal networks.
The Fellowship covers the cost of travel and accommodation at three immersive workshops (“boot camps”), the first of which will be held in Reykjavik, Iceland, August 17-21, 2020.
