The Public Policy New Voices Fellowship Program is a collaboration among leading American public policy graduate schools, premier corporate public policy teams, and some of the most innovative global strategic advisory firms to provide a year-long Fellowship for public policy graduate students from racially underrepresented communities.
PPNV supports and elevates racially underrepresented communities in the field of public policy. In that pursuit, we engage students of color while recognizing the structural challenges that prevent full representation and participation in policy-focused careers.

The program aims to match each Fellow with a paid internship within PPNV partner organization. While securing an internship is not promised, Fellows are supported and coached through the application process to strengthen their chances of being selected and offered summer employment. PPNV does not offer financial assistance directly to Fellows or scholarships. This program provides Fellows with pathways to employment opportunities and an increased network to support their overall professional success in a field with systemic barriers to entry for people of color.
Skill Building: To provide Fellows with the tools needed to succeed
Mentorship: To explore working within various sectors within public policy
Speaker Series: To discuss relevant policy topics with experts

The PPNV 2022 Fellowship will include approximately 40 students and maintains gender parity.

Fellows have access to Globally’s virtual community management application, through which they can connect with other emerging leaders, engage in discussion groups, and deepen their network within the Globally community.
