Three silo worlds of 'Public Policy' in India

Need of a comprehensive platform to bring these together.


I was part of these three different worlds


1) Government - Policy Maker

2) Academia - Public Policy Innovation and research

3) Corporate - Implementation agency of government programs and technology innovator. An advocator of Policy change.


Frankly speaking, these three worlds work in silos. I always felt that there is a need to bring in the perspectives and knowledge of these three worlds together and help a better Policy Making.


Our esteemed Educational institutions spend a lot of money on research activities. But the research findings are confined in research journals and Educational Institutes incentivize the researchers to publish papers.


Government is busy in administration and I am not sure whether the form and language of research innovations of academicians reach the policymakers.



Let us come to the Corporate sector.


Corporate

are more interested in advocating 'their interest' ( I am not saying this is wrong).


The missing link is a collaborative effort.


Do not you think that every state has to come up with a 'Special Purpose Vehicle' or a platform to bring three worlds together?
