Policy Analysis

Within policy analysis we are concerned with policy-, stakeholder- and network analysis. We examine political processes (politics), institutional frameworks (polity) and policy content (policy). Applications include (comparative) country- and regional studies, as well as problem and situational analyses. We use various participatory research approaches in addressing the increasingly important stakeholder and network analyses. Using stakeholder mapping we illustrate the interests, strategies and resources of important actors and their relationships in key policy areas.
