Working in public policy presents an opportunity to solve pressing national and global issues. But what is public policy? What is policy research and why does it matter? What does it take to shape or nudge policies that define the future trajectories of nations and communities? We will unpack some of these questions in this session. We will also deliberate on the role of smart, efficient and inclusive buildings/built environments in solving some wicked problems of our times.
