Association for Public Policy Analysis & Management

The recipients of the 2016 APPAM Equity and Inclusion Fellowship are invited to formally network with each other and members of the Policy Council during this breakfast.  Recipients will be recognized for their accomplishments and bright futures.  The Equity and Inclusion Fellowship was created in an effort to encourage participation by underrepresented students in APPAM and its activities. The goal of this fellowship program is to introduce recipients to the world of public policy and APPAM, and foster a lifelong affiliation and engagement with both.

The program will start with a welcome from APPAM President, Ron Haskins, Brookings Institution, followed by the presentation of awards by APPAM Diversity Committee Chair, John Martinez, MDRC.  Maya Shankar, a Senior Advisor at the White House, former Behavioral Science Advisor to the United Nations, and former post-doctoral fellow in cognitive neuroscience at Stanford University, will deliver a keynote address on her experience in the public policy field. Maya received her Ph.D. from Oxford University on a Rhodes Scholarship and a B.A. from Yale University.

This event is by invite only.
