We research:
- Responsibility and task distribution in the public sector
- Political governance and coordination, within and across administrative levels and sectors
- Political participation and involvement
- Collaboration between the public sector and civil society
The department conducts research within various policy areas, such as healthcare and social services, climate and environmental policy, and housing and education policy.
Much of our research focuses on how policy is expressed locally and within municipal organizations. We use both qualitative and quantitative methods of analysis.
