   - "The Internet is a critical battleground for free expression, free

   - Technologists in government are transforming how technology can work
   for its citizens.
   - Algorithms can perpetuate existing bias, discriminatory behaviors and
   injustice."

Applications for the Ford Foundation Technology Fellows program are now
open and Ford is looking to reach qualified candidates. You can find it
here: http://www.fordfoundation.org/careers

We are looking for people with a tech perspective to really help shape and
build out how technology informs the work of three key thematic areas -
civic engagement & governance, equitable development, and gender racial and
ethnic justice. It’s an opportunity to truly influence issues at the
intersection of tech and social justice. I’ve written more about why Ford
is hiring technologists here:

Thanks so much,

Michael
