It was my privilege today to speak at the Growth Academy to an audience of scholars, many of whom are engaged in policy advice. I spoke about integrating uncertainty formally into policy assessment. The audience asked great questions and probed ways to extend the insights to a variety of challenges faced by governments around the world.
