On September 19-20, 2019, University of Chicago faculty to met with French researchers from Sciences Po to share their most recent and cutting edge work in a deliberately comparative and collaborative context toward the goal of knowledge growth and policy innovation. The scientific exchange was designed in 2016 to bring together on a regular basis health policy researchers and scholars from US and France. The health and social service sectors in both the US and France are dynamic and characterized by high levels of research and evaluation with potential to catalyze innovation and reform in health policy and service delivery. The process of translating emerging social science research and evaluation into effective policy and service delivery requires opportunities for analysis and exchange such as this Workshop was designed to provide.
Support for this workshop came from The France Chicago Center and the Scientific Mission of the French Consulate and the Embassy in France. The College at the University of Chicago and the Center in Paris will help support the next workshop in the series, in 2020, hosted at the Center in Paris in Paris, France. The focus of the CHAS & Sciences Po Workshops on Health Policy Innovation and Reform is to bring together on a regular basis health policy researchers and scholars from the U.S. and France to share — in a comparative and collaborative context – their most recent work in areas central to understanding health innovation and reform across political contexts.
Topics addressed in this year’s Workshop included science-based policy innovation and reform, improving access through health insurance and service innovation, prevention, social investment and regulation.
