The Applied Data Fellowship program is focused on the intersection of data analysis and public policy in the US

In recent years, data-driven analysis has become an important part of policy development. While governments and non-profits are increasingly investing in data analysis capabilities, there still remains a significant gap between data analysis and actual policy implementation. The ADF aims to provide a bridge between data and policy through a one-year United States-based fellowship in applied data.

Fellows are directly embedded into local government and non-profit host institutions for one year. In addition to hands-on experience implementing data insights and working closely with senior-level stakeholders, Fellows also receive managerial oversight from experienced social impact consultants and technical support in the form of data analysis training and oversight.
