Civic Architects: The Policy Generation Group

In a democracy, people and their well being is at the core of an exemplary public policy mechanism, which is why proactive mass action can determine the fate of the policies that the State formulates. It is thus crucial that people demand sustainable solutions for existing concerns that deserve carefully crafted policies.

We believe that in the world’s largest democracy, effective public participation can turn policy making into a transparent and accountable process where the government can acknowledge issues that people heed and demand to be resolved. 

In our endeavour to unravel the complexity of Public Policy and expand the scope of public awareness and education in policy making, we are organising ‘Civic Architects’, a first of its kind Policy Workshop, in collaboration with The Economics Society, SRCC.

How does it work?

This Policy Workshop intends to bring together students and young professionals who will architect policy solutions to aid and assist policy action on issues of immediate import. The format intends to:

• Educate you about different aspects of Public Policy.
• Educate you about issues that need your attention.
• Enable you to think of efficacious policy solutions to deal with such issues.
