Globally, health care workers, first responders, essential workers, public servants, and scientists are working tirelessly to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

This crisis demands an evidence-based response. Informing our actions and decisions using the best available science, and mobilizing the skills and knowledge of experts will be vitally important.  To help you, we will be keeping this post updated with credible sources of information on COVID-19 and ways to take action and do your part to stop the spread. We will continue to add to this post as the situation evolves.

My time at E4D

Submitted by Kimberly Girling on Mon, 11/23/2020 - 06:40

After two amazing years, it is with many mixed emotions that I announce I am leaving Evidence for Democracy. While I’m moving into a fantastic new role that I am so excited about, it is bittersweet to be leaving a job and an organization that I love. It’s been an incredible few years and I thought this would be a great chance to reflect on my time with E4D.
