¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵAPP

¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵAPP Government Analytics Fellowship Program is a pioneering initiative designed to bridge the gap between the vast, yet underutilized, data resources held by governments and the potential for enhanced public administration efficiency through data-informed decision-making.

Leveraging insights from the Government Analytics Handbook and supported by World ¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵAPP experts and academics, the Fellowship offers frontier evidence and practitioner insights to enhance government efficiency. The Fellowship is a collaboration between the World ¶¹ÄÌÊÓƵAPP Development Economics Vice-Presidency (DEC) and the Governance Global Practice (GGP). 

The applications for the 2024 cohort are now closed.
