Description
The WAPPP Fellowship at the Harvard Kennedy School's Women and Public Policy Program (WAPPP) is a non-stipendiary, residential fellowship designed for exceptional scholars whose research addresses gender-related issues in economic opportunity, political participation, health, or education. The program brings together a diverse group of researchers, faculty, students, and fellows to foster intellectual exchange and collaboration. Fellows are expected to engage actively in research seminars, contribute to the academic community, and make significant scholarly progress—such as completing a book, monograph, or article—during their residency.
