Are you interested in pursuing a career in politics and/or policy making? Do you have an ambition to implement your ideals for society? Whether you work in a small company or a big organization like a governmental ministry or the United Nations: policy is made everywhere. From PR to privacy, and from data to diversity, all professional settings demand views, rules and regulations. But how do you make and shape policy?

Join this edition of Your Perspective on Monday, December 12, and learn from Humanities alumni about their work in politics and policy making.
