LOGIC: Good Practice Principles for Mainstreaming Behavioural Public Policy
This report outlines good practice principles intended to encourage the incorporation of behavioural perspectives as part of standard policymaking practice in government and governmental organisations. Evidence from the behavioural sciences is potentially transformative in many areas of government policy and administration. The 14 good practice principles, organised into five dimensions, present a guide to the consistent production and application of useful behavioural science evidence. Governments and governmental organisations looking to mainstream behavioural public policy may use the good practice principles and case studies included in this report to assess their current policy systems and develop strategies to further improve them.
Governance
Implementing a strategy to embed behavioural science into business-as-usual policy making takes effort and resources. Implementation will be more efficient and effective if there is a structure around how these resources and efforts are managed and organised. The principles in this section suggest an individual or team can be held accountable for mainstreaming behavioural public policy and be appropriately funded to do so.
