S4 Ep22: How to policymakers interpret different types of evidence?

17 min • 5 juni 2024

evidence on which interventions work than ever. But that doesn’t translate into better
policy unless a policymaker acts on it. Eva Vivalt and Tim Phillips offer advice to
researchers on how to present their insights.
