ABOUT THE EVENT
Evidence-based policy development is increasingly being relied on by organisations to solve complex policy problems. Playing a key role in the Government’s implementation of this rigorous, evidence-based approach is the use of scientific data.
The Policy Officers’ Evidence-Based Policy Development Conference 2013 will bring together speakers and participants from all over Australia and from all levels of Government, Education and Non-Government organisations to investigate future directions and focuses for policy makers.
The event provides an outstanding networking and professional development opportunity for Policy Officers who are new to their role and also experienced Policy Officers, Advisors and Divisional Managers who wish to refresh their toolkit with the latest thinking and approaches.
