The future of think tanks and policy advice | 30 January

Bruegel event recordings

This event is part of the "Why Think Tanks Matter" annual forum. What is the added value of think tanks? What is the role of new competitors, such as law firms, advocacy groups, PR firms and non-traditional media sources, in transforming policy research and advisory? What is the impact of increased fragmentation, polarization of politics and changes in political parties and congress on the public discourse and policy advice? These are a few of many questions that were answered and discussed on this year's Why Think Tanks Matter Forum. The focus was on the future of think tanks and policy advice, consequently many contemporary challenges and opportunities think tanks face were addressed. Bruegel is proud to participate in the 2019 Global Go To Think Tank Report Launch that takes place in over 100 countries around the world simultaneously.
