International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance
Tunis, Tunisia
As part of the PSVF fellowship, Brooke Davies will be joining the constitution-building team at the International Institute for Democracy and Electoral Assistance (IDEA) in Tunis, Tunisia. Her projects will involve assisting in the Yemeni peace process and the constitution-building processes in Sudan and Mali. While at Harvard Law, Brooke was active in the negotiation and conflict resolution community. Through the Harvard Negotiation and Mediation Clinical Program, she co-wrote a report on how protest movements can better negotiate with their political leadership titled, “Power, Protest, and Political Change.” She served as a Teaching Fellow for the Negotiation Workshop and the Harvard Divinity School class, “Negotiating Across Worldviews,” as well as a Research Assistant for the Comparative Constitutions Project. This June, she will publish a report on the implementation of peace agreements through domestic law with the University of Edinburgh’s Political Settlements Research Programme. Before coming to HLS, Brooke was a speechwriter at the firm West Wing Writers.
