Engagement. Knowledge. Research.
Policy Centre Jersey has the objective of increasing knowledge about, and civic engagement in, Jersey and thereby contributing to a more effective policy making with better outcomes for the people of Jersey.
Research
The Centre undertakes, commissions and invites research that meets the criteria of being relevant to Jersey and evidence-based. A report on election turnout was published on 11 April 2023, and a project on social mobility is currently being undertaken.
Academic Centre
The Centre is keen to encourage Jersey students who prepare dissertations to do so on Jersey-related subjects. This website, including island studies, a database of academic papers and useful links, is a valuable resource for such research.
Think Pieces
Think pieces are short evidence-based papers by named authors relevant to public policy in Jersey. They are either entirely Jersey-specific or build on work done by other think tanks and research organisations, drawing out relevance to Jersey.
