Request funding to support your PAE or SYPA through the HKS Winter Common Application.
Harvard Kennedy School students engaged in gender equity–related research projects can apply for WAPPP funding to support and expand their work into policy-relevant deliverables.
- Current HKS students working on gender equity–related research projects are eligible for funding.
- Former WAPPP summer fellows and interns are strongly encouraged to apply for additional funding to extend their summer experience into a gender-focused PAE or SYPA.
- Funding recipients are required to share their published PAE/SYPA with the WAPPP team and will be invited to participate in meetings to discuss their experiences with other students.
Cultural Bridge Fellowships: Students are eligible for winter funding through the Cultural Bridge program if they are working on a gender-focused research project in countries or contexts where they have not previously lived or worked.
Gender Equity Internships/Projects: Students whose PAEs/SYPAs do not fit the Cultural Bridge description are eligible for winter funding through WAPPP through various other sources.
