Making Policy Governance Effective and PreciseProgress on key issues related to health, nutrition and population requires policies and action that are geographically precise and effective. We focus on units that bring geographic precision and political engagement that could guide efficient resource allocation decisions, targeted policy actions and performance monitoring and evaluations. Examples of such geographic units include congressional districts in the US or parliamentary constituencies or villages in India. Currently, data gaps undermine our ability to optimally target resources and monitor progress. Our mission is to develop rigorous data science solutions, create value-added data, and undertake scientific inquiry with the goal of improving precision in policy governance and action. |
