About the Organizer: The Caucasus Research Resource Centers (CRRC) is a network of research and research support centers in Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. Established in 2003, CRRC’s goal is to strengthen social science research and public policy analysis in the South Caucasus. Over the past thirteen years, CRRC has become a nexus of activity for the social science community in the South Caucasus, providing open access to data, scholarly literature, and professional training for social science researchers.

About the Conference: The conference will bring together local and international researchers to discuss innovative practices in empirical research and their application to public policy analysis. We invite papers that discuss various aspects of policy analysis in the South Caucasus and innovations in empirical social science research that may lead to better policy outcomes. Presenters are expected to highlight the application of quantitative and/or qualitative methods to the study of the policy making process, analysis of policy outcomes, or assessment of the impact of a particular policy. To achieve high quality discussion and feedback for presenters, a limited number of papers will be accepted.
