Unpacking the Pathway to Policy Careers

Description:

It matters who works in policy but not everyone who wants to work in policy has an equitable opportunity. Young people from historically marginalized communities face structural barriers accessing many of the prerequisites for entry into policy careers (e.g. access to a four-year degree, the ability to take unpaid internships, etc.). During this panel, we will have a discussion about the structural barriers to policy careers, what can be done to alleviate those barriers, and why it matters.
