Its research scope covers, among others, finance technologies, health data security and privacy, technologies for trustworthy governance, democracy, and humanitarian needs.

technology-grounded policy papers on current technological challenges and their social,
political, or economic consequences. Their paper will be part of our ongoing policy paper series that aims to inform about digital trust issues at all political levels, including the general public, and to facilitate discussions about technological as well as regulatory solutions.
Policy fellows will gain valuable experience and develop strong skills in science communication, policy communication, and research management enabling them to transform research findings into policy impact and preparing them for interdisciplinary careers in research leadership and scientific policy consultation/advocacy.
Fellows will be selected based on the quality, relevance, and promise of their policy paper proposals. We particularly welcome proposal submissions on the following broad areas:
