Lokneeti - as the name suggests "Lok" means संसार (for public), "neeti" means Policies सरकार की नीतियां, a programme taught us an understanding of the thin line between the duties, roles, and responsibilities of "Sarkar" (Government), "Samaaj" (Communities/NGO) and "Bazaar" (Industry). All this understanding is possible by dynamic and dedicated professors of ISPP who are committed to developing the intellect of scholars of Lokneeti as perfect match for the future need of policymakers and think-tankers.

Founding CLASS of May 2022
The rigorous LokNeeti programme has provided me with not only a greater understanding of public policy but also its relation with data science and behavioural change. It was a wonderful experience to explore multiple areas of public policy and to grow academically, professionally, and personally. I am grateful to all the faculty members, supporting staff, and my batchmates for making this journey memorable.

LokNeeti has been a beautiful experience for me. With programmes like data management, behaviour change, design thinking, monitoring and evaluation, the program has completed a full circle in teaching us about intervention. We’ve graduated with great learnings and experience not just from professors but from our very diverse cohort. Would 10/10 recommend to people with an interest in public policy!

Founding CLASS of May 2022
The LokNeeti programme started without any expectations but concluded with exponential learning. This unique programme had a diverse cohort, where age was not a barrier. All of us got an equal opportunity to meet and learn from the best minds of India (bureaucrats, researchers, entrepreneurs, lawyers, authors, social workers, journalists, and statisticians). I would like to thank each one of them and my cohort for sharing their knowledge and wisdom with me.
