ABOUT THE BOOK

Data is the key to shaping better policies.” By analyzing trends, fostering accountability, and predicting future outcomes, data empowers effective, inclusive policymaking, particularly in regions like South Asia, driving long-term societal change.
This report explores the outcomes of an immersive program designed to equip participants with critical skills in data analytics for effective policymaking. The fellowship’s comprehensive curriculum covered a broad range of topics, including research ethics, advanced statistical analysis, GIS for spatial data analysis, gender mainstreaming, and the integration of artificial intelligence in policymaking. Through practical sessions and real-world applications, participants were empowered to use data to address pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges, such as climate change, gender equality, and economic sustainability.
This document serves as a testament to the program’s impact, highlighting how data-driven insights can foster inclusive, evidence-based policymaking, shaping the future of governance and addressing the most urgent issues of our time.
