*About Data for Policy*

Since its inception in 2015 at the University of Cambridge, the Data for
Policy conference series has served as a leading platform for addressing
the gap between data advancements and effective policymaking. Over the past
decade, it has consistently attracted prominent researchers and thought
leaders worldwide. In addition to our conferences, we have partnered with
Cambridge University Press to launch the open-access Data & Policy in 2019.
This initiative provides a platform for rigorous scholarly work at the
intersection of data science and public policy, supported by an integrated
peer-review process linking conference presentations to publication
opportunities.
