Evidence-Based Scientific Policy Advice

Klaus Zimmermann ()

No 243, RatSWD Working Papers from German Data Forum (RatSWD)

Abstract: While policy measures affect the welfare of nations, the practice of policy advice is determined by complex rules. Evidence-based scientific policy advice gives weight to hard empirical facts and restrictions. The lecture discusses challenges and conditions for success and provides suggestions to improve the implementation of such a strategy.
