Will Moy is CEO of the Campbell Collaboration, an international research network which aims to make understanding the state of the art in social science as natural as looking up a word in the dictionary. His background is in technology, policy, and communications.
Previously Will was CEO of Full Fact, a UK-based charity that works for the honest and accurate use of evidence in public life, a role he held from 2010. Will led it from the initial idea to become a trusted voice whose work is used by millions of people, from voters to the most senior policy makers. As well as being widely used, Full Fact’s work led to changes in the rules and practices of parliament, the media, and official statistics. They became the first ever team to be awarded the British Academy President’s Medal for outstanding service to the humanities and social sciences. Full Fact AI – its tools to help tackle misinformation at internet scale – won the Google AI for Social Global Impact Challenge and is now in use on five continents.
Will is an alumnus of the Marketing Academy Scholarship and the Google for Startups accelerator programme, and a Visiting Research Fellow at King’s College London and Nuffield College Oxford. He previously worked for a non-party political member of the House of Lords, an all party parliamentary group, and as an IT consultant.
