Jacinda Ardern to join Harvard as a fellow this fall.

Former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has been appointed to dual fellowships at Harvard University, including the 2023 Angelopoulos Global Public Leaders Fellow and a Hauser Leader in the school’s Center for Public Leadership. Ardern will also be the first tech governance leadership fellow at the school’s Berkman Klein Center for Internet & Society. She sees the opportunity as a chance to share her experience with others and learn, and plans to return to New Zealand after the fellowships. Ardern's time at Harvard will include working on challenges around the growth of generative AI tools and collaborating with the center’s research community on addressing violent extremism online.
