Institutes and laboratories : Institute of Public Policies

The Institute of Public Policies aims to promote the analysis and quantitative evaluation of public policies, supported by the latest research methods in economics.

The Institute of Public Policies (IPP) has been created by the Paris School of Economics and is developed through a scientific partnership with the GENES.

Introducing the Institute of Public Policies

The work done by the IPP is related to themes covering a broad spectrum of public policy questions: competition policy, democracy and institutions, education, employment, environment, firms, health and well-being, housing and regional development, pensions, tax system.

This work aims both to develop scholarly research in the field of public policy and to encourage citizen participation in public debate. To do this, the IPP publishes its results not only in standard university formats, but also in formats better adapted to broader public consumption (notes and reports). Moreover, the IPP develops on-line tools that allow a greater number of people to learn more about public policy issues.

The IPP is supported (since 2012) by a French government subsidy managed by the Agence Nationale de la Recherche (ANR) under the framework of the Investissements d’avenir programme (curently: reference ANR-17-EURE-001).
