Policy Briefs

SEARCA's Policy Briefs emphasize the key policy lessons and recommendations from SEARCA's programs and activities (e.g., research studies supported by SEARCA) presented in a brief and concise, easy-to-read format for busy policymakers. Each brief begins with an assessment of a current issue, then weaves existing policies into it, and concludes with policy recommendations.
