Evidence-Based Policy

Evidence-Based Policy is the practice of using scientific evidence to formulate public policy. Our expert Steve Morris is going to give an overview of EBP: what it is, what it claims to do and the current debate around its use. And we are, as ever, going to do this down the pub. And there is, as ever, no need to bring anything but an open and enquiring mind and your drinking arm.

We’ll meet from 7ish on Tuesday 27th March at the Wheatsheaf: http://www.beerintheevening.com/pubs/s/90/908/Wheatsheaf/Fitzrovia

I liked this article for its diagram of policy options (ah, I think I’ll go for using poor information poorly, thanks…): http://www.defra.gov.uk/science/how/evidence.htm
