American Institutes for Research Experts Prioritize Evidence and Equity at the 2023 APPAM Fall Research Conference

Arlington, Va., Nov. 02, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Dozens of American Institutes for Research (AIR) experts will participate in the 2023 Association for Public Policy Analysis & Management (APPAM) Fall Research Conference, being held November 9–11 in Atlanta.

Aligned with this year’s conference theme, Policy that Matters: Making Public Services Work for All, AIR-affiliated sessions underscore the importance of generating evidence-based solutions to address urgent social challenges in a way that prioritizes equity and builds local capacity to improve systems and supports. AIR sessions cover the institution's work in the U.S. and internationally, and include a wide range of topics such as responding to child and youth housing insecurity; helping students and schools thrive in a post-pandemic environment; promoting college access; testing interventions designed to boost economic opportunity; improving education quality in multilingual education settings; and exploring women's agency, empowerment, and the role of social protection in low- and middle-income countries.

APPAM is dedicated to improving public policy and management by fostering excellence in research, analysis, and education. Each year, AIR experts join thousands of other conference attendees to share knowledge, disseminate research findings, and discuss emerging themes across a variety of policy topics.

Conference attendees can visit AIR’s Exhibit Booth 201, located at the Hyatt Regency Atlanta, Grand Hall West. Recent graduates and active job seekers are encouraged to attend the APPAM inaugural Career Fair, which occurs Friday, November 10, 1–3 p.m. in Grand Hall East on the Exhibit Level.
