Agora Policy invites early- to mid-career staff members from Nigerian civil society and media organizations, think tanks, and government agencies to apply for its inaugural Policy Writing Fellowship.
The fellowship is intended to develop and deepen the competitively selected participants’ ability to conceptualize, research, and write compelling and impactful policy papers.
It is part of a new project by Agora Policy, titled the Policy Support, Deepening and Engagement (PSDE) project aimed at strengthening data-driven and participatory approach to policymaking and governance in the country, supported by the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
