> (ages 25-35) from across the NATO Alliance to recommend concrete
> proposals that support a renewed Trans-Atlantic Bond. NATO Secretary
> General Anders Fogh Rasmussen announced the working group today to

> Wales this September and has asked the Atlantic Council to facilitate
> this unique international and nonpartisan initiative.
> 
> Following a competitive and merit-based application process, fifteen 
> emerging leaders from NATO member countries will travel to the 
> Atlantic Council’s Toward a Europe Whole and Free conference on
> April 29-May 1 in Washington, DC to meet senior leaders and begin
> drafting recommendations; to NATO HQ in Brussels this June to
> present recommendations to Alliance leaders; and – tentatively – to
> the NATO Summit in Wales this September. Members will have an
> opportunity to shape the discussions at and in the run-up to the 2014
> NATO Summit and build a lasting community of peers committed to
> supporting a strong Trans-Atlantic bond for the twenty-first century.
> Applicants may include elected officials, business leaders,
> journalists, legislative staff, military personnel and veterans,
> community leaders, policy experts, government officials, and other
> professionals working in a field of relevance to the Trans-Atlantic
> bond whose leadership experience, professional expertise, and direct
> role in influencing policy and public opinion position them to
> contribute substantively to the working group and provide innovative
> recommendations.
