The Institute for Public Policy is a Bishkek-based independent organization that was founded in April 2005. It aims at promoting formation of a practice of public policy and development of mechanisms of constructive interaction between state institutions, civil society, mass media and businesses.
The mission of the Institute for Public Policy is to contribute to effective, responsive and accountable public policy making in Central Asia.
The legacy of Soviet policy-making instruments and certain maladaptive patterns of social dynamics continue to engender detached, ineffective and unaccountable policy-making practices in the region. In today's ever-integrating world, it is vitally important to develop and uphold the best standards of public policy making. The IPP aims to contribute our best efforts to a fundamental transformation of public policy in the region via expert consultation, research, implementing educational and conflict management projects, and increasing the international exposure of regional matters.
