Policy & Economics

Many organizations approach policy questions through a communications and government relations lens, leaving out critical data and insight needed to make informed decisions.

In contrast, Cascadia’s approach to economic analysis and policy evaluation draws on expertise in mathematics, economics, and behavioural science. We perform deep research and analysis, develop models, and test hypotheses to uncover both the immediate and longer-range impacts of policy changes. We tailor our analysis to the economic, social, and environmental dimensions that are most relevant to both decision makers and impacted stakeholders.

We know this works because our analysis (along with the narratives revealed by the data) is often directly used to advance public policy and mobilize capital.
