Hello all,

I'm very excited to announce that Nesta (London) is hiring a researcher to
come join us to work on the EU Engineroom project.

This is a really exciting role for an early career researcher to become
involved in shaping the European Commission's Next Generation Internet
initiative, which seeks to build a more democratic, resilient and inclusive
internet by 2025. You'd be helping out with setting the research agenda of
the programme, with a particular focus on imaging different possible
futures for the internet.

You'd be working in a dynamic team working on a whole range of projects on
topics like digital social innovation, AI regulation, decentralised data
governance and data commons, fake news, digital democracy and technology
foresight.
