Applications are now open for the inaugural Bloomberg Harvard Visiting Fellows Program at the Bloomberg Center for Cities at Harvard University.

We're inviting expert practitioners from diverse professional backgrounds to join our community and advance projects that can strengthen local government and city leadership.

Over the course of a semester, Visiting Fellows will engage with @Harvard faculty, students, researchers, and fellow practitioners to develop their projects, exchange ideas, and contribute their expertise to the Center's work.

We're looking for urban problem-solvers and government innovators with a demonstrated record of impact and a specific, feasible project they are positioned to advance.

20 years of the Project on Municipal Innovation! 👏

Since 2006, our colleagues at @DataSmartCities have brought together chiefs of staff and senior leaders from the largest U.S. cities to step back from the day-to-day, tackle their toughest policy challenges together, and connect with experts at Harvard and beyond.

This month, leaders from 29 cities gathered for a convening on fiscal resilience and budgeting, featuring Data-Smart City Solutions and PMI Director @GoldsmithOnGov, and Center faculty affiliate @LGermanTweets of @HarvardGSD. Participants left with frameworks and insights to put to work back home.

Special thanks to @BloombergDotOrg for making this work possible. Here’s to the next 20 years of PMI! 🏙️
