Briefing Notes
We produce a regular series of Briefing Notes that are reviews of key findings and lessons learned from completed or ongoing projects, or thought-pieces on important debates in development. They are concise, focused and to-the-point, offering a quick guide to OPM work and intellectual contributions. OPM Briefing Notes are aimed at a wide audience, including policy makers (in both donor and recipient countries), policy analysts, and researchers.
