The Policy Post #85
Editor’s Note ✍️
We have a small present for you today 🎁
Regardless of age and educational background, jobs in public policy today are mostly going to people who bring with them a collection of skills and knowledge that are beyond just their degrees. Many people in our community reach out to us for tips on how to start/switch to careers in policy. One low-hanging fruit in this pursuit is to upskill, and we have just the thing you need – a resource database of 150+ courses in public policy! Keep scrolling to find it 🔎
Let us know if there are any other resource lists that might benefit you or the PPI community at large (email, or DM us here), and do share this with people you think would find this helpful ⭐
With that, we bring you The Policy Post #85
This Week’s Policy Focus 🔎
The Myth of Growth
Although 21st century India has trudged down the path of ‘competitive federalism’, things have started rushing leeward lately. Governments must consider the long-term positive impact of skill development. Building cohabitation ecosystems in sync with India’s federal spirit, and increasing the competency and skills of the youth will help states like Punjab and Haryana lead by example in the race to growth.
