Founder & Director - Dr Dolly van Tulleken
Dr Dolly van Tulleken founded Dolitics to help drive positive policy change towards a healthier, more sustainable and equitable society.
Alongside her consultancy work, Dolly is a Visiting Researcher at Cambridge University's MRC Epidemiology Unit where she completed her PhD on UK government obesity policy. Her research examined why 30 years of government obesity policy in England has failed to reduce the obesity prevalence and improve population health, what influences government policymaking and the specific role of policy entrepreneurs. Her research has been published in high impact journals and used by government.
Previously, Dolly led the childhood obesity and grassroots sport research at the Centre for Social Justice think tank, ran an election campaign, and was a parliamentary researcher in the House of Lords.
Dolly co-founded 50:50 Parliament's cross-party #AskHerToStand campaign which helps women in the UK get selected and elected. She is Vice President of ex-offenders employment charity Tempus Novo and an ambassador of women military veterans charity Salute Her.
