NEW is an annual three-day training program, where PhD students and post-docs engage in a structured comparative scenario analysis and research generation exercise facilitated by Bridging the Gap fellows. Additionally, NEW includes a professional development and networking component with sessions built around the involvement of foreign policy experts.
