This summer, Emma Niewald (MGPS ’26) is putting her global policy training into action over 6,000 miles from Austin, while interning in Skopje, North Macedonia.
Through the Texas Global Embedded Scholars program in the Balkans, she is working with the National Democratic Institute’s (NDI) Parliamentary Support Program (PSP), a long-standing initiative focused on enhancing the efficiency of North Macedonia’s legislature and strengthening public trust in democratic institutions.
