The National Fellows Program and #ShareTheMicInCyber Fellowship at New America seek an enthusiastic, motivated individual for a full-time hybrid or remote communications-focused internship beginning in early June 2024.
The Communications Intern will support the two fellowship programs in planning and executing their communications work. This position would be ideal for someone looking to gain communications and program management skills within a nonprofit policy setting.
The #ShareTheMicInCyber Fellowship (#STMIC Fellowship) is a program providing cybersecurity professionals from diverse backgrounds with an opportunity to conduct policy research and analysis, access professional development, examine critical cyber security issues, and explore questions of diversity and the human side of cybersecurity. We believe that diversity in cybersecurity is vital to national security, and are focused on investing in promising leaders reflective of our nation and global community.

The National Fellows Program invests in thinkers—journalists, scholars, filmmakers, and public policy analysts—who generate big, bold ideas that have an impact and spark new conversations about the most pressing issues of our day. Current National Fellows work on a wide range of topics, including international security, global migration, and criminal justice. Learn more about the Fellows Program here.
