APO’s inaugural Annual Forum brought together policy makers, researchers, and industry experts from all over Australia to discuss the many issues facing evidence, expertise and information access in public policy and practice.
Entitled ‘Evidence, impact and access to knowledge for policy and practice’, the forum was held on the 28th of November in Melbourne. It covered a wide range of topics, including: evidence, impact and the policy process; data, tools and platforms for access and analysis of policy issues; the challenges of information access and use; and improving the system for better public policy and access to knowledge.
Delegates engaged with panel speakers at the conclusion of each session – creating open and lively debate on critical issues. A networking lunch provided delegates with the opportunity to connect with others across a range of industries and disciplines.
The forum concluded with the APO’s 15 year anniversary celebrations, where we were delighted to host many of our valued partners, supporters, authors and researchers, publishers and readers, to celebrate our many successes this year. We would like to thank all those who attended and our wonderful presenters for contributing their time and expertise.
