This year the we’re proud to support two new Max Bell Foundation Senior Fellows.
John Beebe at Toronto Metropolitan University will lead a team to develop and evaluate AI tools that can be used to help voters decide which candidate to vote for, and ultimately increase democratic engagement. You can read more about his work here.
Paul Wells at McGill University will oversee a podcast series that delves into pressing public policy issues in Canada and around the world. His fellowship will include hosting three events across Canada on critical policy issues. You can read more about his work here.
Both Senior Fellows will continue their important contributions to civic engagement and resilient democratic institutions – something that’s particularly timely in 2025.
