International Fellows Program
Summer 2012
The purpose of the NAGTRI International Fellows Program is to provide a forum for elite government attorneys from around the world to learn from each other, explore common issues together, and establish an international network to the mutual benefit of their respective offices. Approximately twenty participants will be selected to take part in this year’s program. The 2012 class will explore, from the perspective of each fellow, strategies for battling public corruption and strengthening public integrity. The class will discuss and analyze together the issues involving public corruption. Fellows are not expected to be experts in this area or even have dealt with the issue in the course of their duties. Rather, the topic serves as a vehicle for the class to jointly analyze an issue with fresh and unique perspectives.
