Convocatoria:
The Europe program at George Washington University was just awarded a grant from the U.S. Mission to NATO, titled "Fulfilling NATO"s burden-sharing commitments: advocacy and policy proposals from the Alliance"s young leaders".

The first order of business is to reach out to about 50 of Europe"s and Canada"s top schools.

In a nutshell, we intend to launch a conversation on NATO"s burden-sharing among European and Canadian students, by way of the following phases/deliverables:

- Between now and Feb. 2019, students (under the guidance of a faculty expert from their respective school) will be asked to prepare a video presentation on the topic of NATO burden-sharing.
- GW will select the best such presentations in Spring 2019,
- Based on which a shortlist of 8 winning schools will take part in a 3-day series of events in Brussels (June 2018), combining in-person debates, a tabletop simulation, and a conference on our topic. Our results will then be published by Oct. 2019
