Covid-19 Public Inquiries
The International Public Policy Observatory has launched a workstream on public inquiries into response to covid-19 around the world.

The “public inquiry” is defined as a major investigation into the response to Covid that is temporary (not an existing permanent committee or ministry). While it is usually established by a government minister, it is largely independent. It is usually (but not exclusively) focused on providing an account on what happened, and what lessons can be learnt from the experience.

We are surveying the global network to collect information about completed and ongoing covid-19 public inquiries to get a sense of the diversity of formats internationally. We are looking for the best/most innovative/productive examples.

This form will take approximately 5-7 minutes to complete.
