Introducing Cohort 2 of Public Policy New Voices Europe

Fellows are based in 11 countries and represent 21 nationalities

Salzburg Global Seminar and The Walt Disney Company are delighted to announce Public Policy New Voices Europe's second cohort.

Thirty applicants have received places to participate in this year's program and join the Salzburg Global Fellowship.

The program allows Fellows to build their capacity through virtual and in-person meetings, peer learning, mentorship, networking, and internship opportunities.

Fellows have been chosen for showing a passion for using public policy to build inclusive communities where diversity is valued.

In addition, they have shown support for communities where all citizens are respected, have full access to resources, are treated equally, do not experience discrimination, and are engaged in the decision-making processes that affect their lives.

Faye Hobson, program director for Culture, said, "We're thrilled to have confirmed and welcomed our second cohort of Public Policy New Voices Europe, and we're excited for the year ahead.

"In addition to The Walt Disney Company, we'd like to thank Squire Patton Boggs for their support for this year's program.

"We've already held two on-board meetings, and getting to know our new Fellows better has been fantastic. In the upcoming year, we look forward to helping them find ways to achieve their personal and professional goals and introduce them to the wider Salzburg Global Fellowship."

Between February and September, Fellows will meet online regularly to listen to thought leaders and discuss how they can apply knowledge shared. They will then meet in person at Schloss Leopoldskron in October to identify solutions to challenges in their communities.
