Sherman Teichman Fellow Mentor, Albright Institute
Teichman is currently an expert at large, serving concurrently in multiple policy fellowships and as an advisor and board members to a number of nonprofit organizations. His academic and policy interests span a wide range of global issues, with a particular focus on international security.
Teichman founded the IGL in 1985 in the wake of the hijacking of TWA flight 847 to give students a nuanced understanding of international terrorism. The program grew incrementally, until it became in 1991 the Education for Public Inquiry and International Citizenship (EPIIC) program -- a year-long course with a strong independent research focus, organized each year around a different international political theme.
Teichman is the founder of the consultancy firm Trebuchet. Teichman is currently serving as a Senior Fellow at the Carr Center for Human Rights Policy at the Kennedy School, Harvard University and a Non-Resident Research Associate at the Centre for International Studies at University of Oxford, and holds affiliations with a number of other international research centers. He also serves in an advisory capacity at multiple non-profit organizations focused on international human rights and peace.
Teichman will serve as a Fellow Mentor for the 2019 class of Albright Fellows at the Albright Institute at Wellesley College.
