Applicants invited for new research fellowship

Public sector specialists are being invited to apply for a new research fellowship to study a pressing issue of public policy.

The first William Plowden Fellowship in Public Policy has been launched by the London School of Economics and the National Council for Voluntary Organisations.

The successful applicant will spend three months away from his or her work looking at ‘the role of good governance in supporting innovation and achieving positive social impacts.’

He or she will be based at either the Department of Government at the London School of Economics or the Third Sector Research Centre, Birmingham-Southampton and will produce a report and present a lecture to an ‘invited and influential audience’. Expenses will be covered.
