Global Public Policy Network
The Global Public Policy Network (GPPN) is a partnership between Columbia University, the London School of Economics and Political Science, the Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy at the National University of Singapore and Sciences Po, Paris. GPPN is global in two ways: the global spread of its members and its subject focus on emerging global trends in public policy.
The mission of GPPN is to address the most pressing public policy challenges of the 21st century and, as a result, to have policy impact, to be influential in public policy education and training, and to be innovative in teaching and research. GPPN aims to do this through:
• innovative, research-led teaching programmes for students
• cutting edge, collaborative research that is relevant to pressing global problems
• high quality publications that are accessible to researchers and practitioners alike
• conferences and events that brings teachers, researchers and policy-makers together
• high quality executive education and training for policy makers
