Experimentation and Policy Design
Experimentation in policy design involves testing new ideas or solutions on a small scale to see how well they work before wider implementation. It allows policymakers to gather evidence and learn from real-world outcomes. Policy design is the process of creating, planning, and organizing rules or strategies to address public issues. Combining the two ensures that policies are evidence-based, effective, and adaptable. This approach reduces risks and improves decision-making by relying on data and trial results instead of assumptions alone, leading to better, more informed policies that meet community needs.
