GM Policy Fellowship Scheme

Our Fellowship Scheme brings together policymakers and researchers to tackle the region’s most pressing challenges through evidence-informed collaboration.

The Greater Manchester Policy Fellowship Scheme connects local, regional and national policymakers with academic experts at The University of Manchester to explore regional policy priorities. Through tailored engagement, fellows can build relationships with researchers, explore emerging ideas, and gain fresh perspectives to inform policy development and delivery.

As well as supporting professional development, the Scheme creates lasting partnerships between academia and policy, with many fellows continuing to work with us beyond the programme to drive impact across Greater Manchester and beyond.
