Public Policy Interests and Activities of the AFA and Other AAA Sections
In 2010, the Committee on Public Policy began surveying AAA units to understand the activities they are currently undertaking in the public policy domain, as part of its ongoing effort to encourage AAA sections and interest groups to enhance public-policy related communication, cooperation and visibility, develop policy-related projects, and provide better resources and resource development overall. The survey is ongoing, with a second phase planned for fall 2011. Hoping the results will help promote conversations, collaborations, and synergies around policy issues of shared concern, CoPP has asked those participating for permission to post their responses. The survey responses, along with contact people for each section and interest group, are presented here.
