The Mosaic Economic Project application process is now open for the September 2021 Women Changing Policy workshop, scheduled for September 13-15, 2021.
“The Women Changing Policy workshop is an opportunity for diverse women with expertise in economics and technology to hone the skills needed to communicate their work and ideas to policy makers and the media,” said Crystal Swann, Mosaic Economic Project Lead and PPI Senior Fellow. “Through our interactive format, participants get hands-on experience learning the ins and outs of Washington politics and on how to become a go-to policy expert. And it’s a chance to expand their networks.”
This is the third Women Changing Policy workshop. Previous workshops have included candid conversations with influencers in public policy, including leaders and representatives from the United States Congress, the media, and other experts from the policymaking ecosystem.
We encourage women with expertise in economics, finance, technology, telecom and corporate governance to apply. Applicants should be well established in their careers – be it at a corporation, academic institution or NGO–and looking for opportunities to grow their influence on critical issues, from the wealth gap to infrastructure to health care. The Mosaic Economic Project aims to bring new voices to the policy arena. To that end, we value diversity in applicants. This workshop will be held virtually, and the deadline to apply is August 31, 2021.
Interested applicants should apply here.
