Evidence & Policy

Evidence & Policy journal, with its unique perspective, focuses on exploring how research evidence is adopted and applied by policymakers and practitioners. The journal encourages in-depth analysis of all aspects of evidence generation, evaluation, and application, including research design, data collection and analysis methods, and how research findings are translated into actual policies and practices. The journal covers a range of fields from education, public health to social welfare, aiming to provide policymakers with scientific and objective decision-making support. It emphasizes the communication and collaboration between researchers and the policy community to promote the positive impact of research findings on the policy-making process. In addition, the journal also pays attention to the guiding role of policy feedback on research and how to optimize and guide future research directions through policy.

By publishing high-quality peer-reviewed articles, the journal builds a communication platform between the academic, policy, and practice communities, promoting the formulation and implementation of evidence-based policies. Its goal is to bridge the gap between research and policy, enhance the scientific and effectiveness of policies, and also provide researchers with a stage to demonstrate the impact of their work on the real world. Through these efforts, the journal is committed to building a closer and more productive connection between academia and policy.
