Book Launch: 'Strengthening Policy Research: Role of Think Tank Initiative on South Asia'

Evidence can be a powerful tool for policy change; however, when the corridors of power are closed, how does one ensure that public policies are based on evidence?

The book “Strengthening Policy Research: Role of Think Tank Initiative on South Asia” documents the opportunities, challenges and, most importantly, the need for influencing policy through the experience of 14 think tanks (supported by Think Tank Initiative) in five South Asian countries (Bangladesh, Pakistan, Nepal, Sri Lanka and India). The book was launched by the Institute for Social and Environmental Transformation-Nepal (ISET-N) in Kathmandu, Nepal on March 10, 2019
