The Sound of Economics - Ein Podcast von Bruegel

Kategorien:

Think-tanks play a critical role in developing and promoting policy solutions, particularly in times of extreme disruption and change. However, these organisations now operate in information-rich societies where facts, evidence and credible research are often ignored – and where disinformation can gain a footing. In this edition of the Bruegel Backstage podcast series on ‘The Sound of Economics’, Bruegel secretary general Matt Dann welcomes senior thought leaders from research centres around the world, to discuss a range of strategies and best practices for transforming public policy and institutions in an era of digital and political disruptions as well as increased social and economic turbulence.
