The Working Group on Policy Analysis is a new WG within the NISPAcee Annual Conference.  It follows on panels at the last two Annual Conferences.  The purpose of the Working Group is to provide a forum for the discussion of and the sharing of experiences on the use of policy analysis within governments and the teaching and training of policy analysis in academic and governmental institutions, as well as the contribution of non-governmental organizations and think-tanks.  The papers and presentations at the initial “pilot” meeting of the Group show the challenges in teaching policy analysis in various countries, which have implemented policy analysis to different degrees; the discussion will give an opportunity for the exchange of information on the experience of how policy analysis contributes to achieving a more sustainable economic, social and political environment.  The Working Group also serves as a place where the participants might highlight achievements of policy analysis as an academic discipline and its value within governments.  The participants will exchange information on best practices, with a view to having greater acceptance of public policy analysis (PPA).
The discussions in the Working Group in Warsaw will build on the focus of the WG on the two interrelated clienteles:
-        practitioners within state/government administrations and
-        academics in schools and institutions who teach policy analysis as part of a public administration teaching/training program.
The WG will exchange experience on how academics can meet contemporary needs of public servants in upgrading academic and training programs in PPA as well as in preparing and promoting relevant policy advice.
The WG will also focus on country case studies of PPA and policy implementation that in its turn would allow for the comparative study of different approaches to institutionalization and implementation of PA procedures. Such a review is useful in assessing how effective and efficient existing policy analysis processes are within administrations and proposing how they might be improved.
 
The presentation of papers and the discussion among participants representing CEE, Central Asia and Caucasus counties as well as countries of Western Europe and North America and international organizations allows for sharing experience and for jointly working out ideas and recommendations on PPA improvement and better implementation to meet the urgent need in establishing responsive governance that become even more important under conditions of worldwide economic crises which forces governments to step in regulating market failures more rigorously.
 
At the Annual Conference in Warsaw, the papers are grouped on the following topics:
--Recent Developments in Policy Analysis
--Policy Environment and Policy Instruments
--Building Policy Capacity in a Changing Environment
--Sectoral Policy Analysis
--Looking at Future Applications
In addition to the discussion of the papers, the Working Group will also consider the future of the Working Group and its work program and particularly its research agenda, so that at the end of the NISPAcee Annual Conference, we will as a Working Group meeting seek to have a clear understanding of the way forward of the Group and to have a common understanding of its value as a network of those concerned with the development of policy analysis and the strengthening of the policymaking environment in Central and Eastern Europe and Central Asia. the WG will explore opportunities of collaboration between educational and training institutions and policy centers in order to achieve a synergy of all the efforts in the targeted area.
