To secure freedom, prosperity, and good governance, a democratic society requires a high level of ethical and informed reporting. Centre for Civil Society in partnership with Friedrich Naumann Foundation (FNF) offers ìpolicy, a three day residential course for journalists to equip them with tools to better understand and evaluate the effects of public policies in our day to day functioning. This award winning course focuses on issues in the key areas of education, livelihoods for the poor, and good governance.

CCS was ranked among the top 55 Think Tanks worldwide in 2013 by Think Tank survey of University of Pennsylvania.

REGISTRATION FEE: The fee for the ìpolicy is Rs. 500, which includes all meals and a three-night stay at the venue. This fee is payable upon selection, and payment can be made online or through cheque (Travel costs are not included – participants must make their own arrangements).
