[Commlist] Data for Policy 2022 Inclusion Scholarships

Data for Policy <https://dataforpolicy.org/> is the annual conference 
and premier global forum for interdisciplinary and cross-sector 
discussions around the impact and potentials of the digital revolution 
in the government sector. DfP is delighted to announce that this year it 
will award inclusion scholarships which cover 90% of the 2022 conference 
registration fee. These scholarships will allow recipients to attend 
their regional conference (Hong Kong/Brussels/Seattle) in-person. 
/Exceptional candidates may be awarded additional travel support/.

Inclusion scholarships are part of Data for Policy’s commitment to 
support participation from communities underrepresented in our 
activities due to financial reasons. This year, our fund for 
scholarships is increased thanks to a valuable investment from the Bill 
& Melinda Gates Foundation 
<https://dataforpolicy.org/data-for-policy-2022-inclusion-scholarships-open-to-applicants/>.

Scholarship awards are based on the level of financial need, and the 
appropriateness of the opportunity afforded to the applicant. To be 
eligible, applicants must have no other source of funding to meet the 
cost of registration, and be based in a low or middle income country.

To apply for an inclusion scholarship to attend one region of Data for 
Policy 2022 in person, please send your CV and a detailed cover letter 
to (team /at/ dataforpolicy.org) <mailto:(team /at/ dataforpolicy.org)>, including the
