Details

The New America #ShareTheMicInCyber Fellows 2025 at New America invests, grows, and platforms traditionally underrepresented communities in support of strengthening the nation’s resilience to digital threats.

This cornerstone program provides mid-career cybersecurity professionals from diverse backgrounds with an opportunity to conduct independent policy research and analysis, find solutions for critical cybersecurity issues, and explore questions of diversity and the human side of cybersecurity. The 2025 #ShareTheMicInCyber Fellows will serve for one calendar year (January 1, 2025 through December 31, 2025).

Benefits of New America

  • Each Fellow will receive a stipend, opportunities to access mentorship, and have access to professional development and networking opportunities.

Eligibility for New America

  • Open to mid-career professionals, which are typically individuals who have at minimum 3 years of work experience.

Expectations
