Apolitical is a network for people working in government and in support of government. We encourage members to connect and learn with each other, taking inspiration from Apolitical’s community values & guidelines.
Our network is primarily designed for public servants. We define ‘public servant’ as someone working in government at the local, city, national or multilateral level. This includes elected officials.
We approve applications from:
✅ Anyone working directly in government
✅ Academics and think tank staff whose insights are valuable for public servants*
✅ People working with philanthropic foundations and non-government organisations whose insights and work are relevant to government*
*Work relates to policy, they work closely with government, or they are funded by government
We do not approve applications from:
🔒 Journalists and media so public servants feel Apolitical is a safe space to share
🔒 Students — graduate and undergraduate — who are not yet established in a professional capacity
🔒 Lobbyists and private sector companies or consultants to avoid the risk of lobbying or pitching*
*Exceptions may be made for those embedded in government and exclusively providing public services or government functions within a private sector business model.
We are intentional about who is in our network to ensure we offer them the best value possible from Apolitical.
Our membership criteria exists to create a supportive and trusted environment where opportunities and challenges can be shared openly.
