Shifting Geographies of Expertise and Policymaking
2022-09-09 00:00 - 2022-09-10 23:59 (America/New_York) | Centre on Asia and Globalization, 469C Bukit Timah Road, Singapore, 259772, Singapore
The first in-person workshop that ICI hosts since Covid will takes place at CAG, Lee Kuan Yew School of Public Policy, National University of Singapore. The workshop addresses the changing relationships between expertise and policymaking in India, China, and beyond. In both countries, an increasing reliance on technical expertise for governance has been juxtaposed alongside new conceptions of who counts as a relevant expert. The response to the COVID-19 pandemic is perhaps the most vivid of many instances that illuminate the formation of novel epistemic communities and new institutional frameworks and infrastructures for knowledge production for policymaking. This in-person conference will bring SGEP fellows together to further strengthening fellowships among the fellows, and more importantly, review and critique the researches, in preparation for an academic publication of the fellows’ outstanding insightful research works.
