【Course Objectives】

Policy recommendation or advocacy are one aspect of social design that a citizen bears, but how should they be implemented in practice?
In the first place, "policies" implemented by government are one means of solving social problems, but what role do they occupy in solving social problems? Especially in the context of a sustainable society, what is policy and what is its position? In addition, what kind of relationship should policy have with citizens?
While taking up cases and policies of various social issues, and touching on policy evaluation that is essential to evolve better policies, we will ask, what is policy that takes responsibility for the public (public interest), and how should citizens get involved. Students will understand the principles and specific methods of policy, in particular, EBPM (Evidence Based Policy Making), which has been introduced in recent years in governments.

【Course Contents】

We will take up specific cases and policies of various social issues, while taking into consideration what policy is, its structure and principles, and its limits, and while also touching on policy evaluation that is essential to evolve better policies. Also, students will think about the principles and specific methods of policy, in particular, EBPM (Evidence Based Policy Making), which has been introduced in recent years in governments.
In addition, we will clarify how effective policy recommendations and advocacy is carried out by thoroughly understanding Japan's policy-making process, which is difficult to understand from newspapers and other media alone. (We also plan to hear from practitioners who are advocating policy, etc. from the perspective of citizens).
At the end of the lectures and exercises, students will mutually present their own policy recommendations and evaluations on existing policies to deepen their understanding.
