Apply now for the 2022-23 SAFE Energy Security Fellows Program


SAFE is now accepting applications for the 2022-2023 Energy Security Fellows Program. We encourage you to apply and share with qualified candidates.

The SAFE Fellows Program provides the next generation of energy and national security professionals with access to high-level programming and networking opportunities designed to connect individuals who are passionate about advancing a national conversation on the future of American energy security.

We look for candidates who are professionally connected to energy security, have excellent analytical skills, and have demonstrated professional leadership in matters pertaining to energy, transportation, foreign policy, or national security.

The SAFE Fellows Program will consist of a series of monthly, Washington, D.C.-based in-person dinner discussions and virtual events on energy security policy, approaching the topic through the lens of economic and national security. These intimate, off-the-record events take the form of roundtable discussions, side-by-side with VIP guests, including members of SAFE’s Energy Security Leadership Council.

Fellows will also be asked to submit one article or piece to be published in The Fuse. The Energy Security Fellows Program is a one-year program, and upon completion, participants will be invited to participate in alumni programming, including invitations to private briefings, events, and other opportunities.
