CAPE Policy Fellow

I am a Capabilities in Academic Policy Engagement (CAPE)-funded Policy Fellow at the Centre for Science and Policy, working with the Public Health Directorate at Cambridgeshire County Council on their Health in All Policies strategy. As part of this work, I am focusing on the development and implementation of equity-focused Health Impact Assessments to reduce health inequalities across the County in the long-term.
