She was principal investigator and director of a multi-disciplinary MIT-Harvard research project called “Explorations in Cyber International Relations’’.

They discussed how to encourage the national leaders at the G7 Summit on May 26-27 in Japan to adopt and enforce norms of cyberbehavior as developed over the past few months by BGF cybersecurity experts. This is part of The Boston Global Forum’s BGF-G7 Summit Initiative, whose biggest theme this year is improving international cybersecurity.

Professor Choucri suggested several useful ideas to advance this project. She will be a speaker at the BGF-G7 Summit Initiative conference on May 9 at the Harvard Faculty Club, in Cambridge, Mass.
