Our Council of Advisors is constituted of a distinguished and diverse group of scholars, practitioners, policymakers, civil society leaders, and experts who bring a wealth of knowledge and experience from various fields of research, industry, and academia. In their role as advisors, they will play a critical role in supporting the core research team to broaden the contours of their research vision, and in strategically allowing them to network with other partners and professionals to foster impactful collaborations. Advisors may work dually as mentors and collaborators, both in providing valuable insights and strategic guidance to all constellations under IDEAS. Their diverse perspectives and deep understanding built by experience and interdisciplinarity will ensure that our research remains at the cutting edge and has a meaningful impact on society.
