Research
Evidence-based research is the bedrock of good policy design. Policy Points conducts think tank style research that dissects public policy arguments, helps form policy positions and contributes to the debate about public policy direction. Just as quality research can influence public policy, so can the communication of research findings. Policy Points writes in an accessible style to effectively convey the key messages of its research to non-specialists. |
Data Analysis
Data analysis is crucial to building an evidence base. Policy Points can provide an objective assessment of any data set, evaluate the strength of existing data analysis and make recommendations on how data can be used. As well as providing information from data, Policy Points can build models to provide illustrative examples of the impacts of policy scenarios, and present the findings from data analysis in ways that are easy to interpret. |
Public Policy
Policy Points exists to add rigour and depth to public policy debates. High quality research and better use of data, backed by effective communication, will lead to improved policy design and better outcomes for the government, public sector, business community and society. Policy Points can offer advice on policy positioning, thought leadership on policy design and strategies for getting policy arguments heard by a wider audience. |
