Policy Briefs

Policy briefs outline strategic principles, objectives and action plans necessary to achieve a change in policy or programs (California Policy Lab).

On this page, you will soon find our Policy briefs with recommendations

  • on the inclusion of citizens’ emotional needs into policies,
  • on the importance of integrating emotions on processes of representation and responsiveness,
  • to improve political communication that are particularly targeted at policy makers and communication offices at the city, country and EU levels, and
  • about emotional dynamics in political communication in the digital universe (especially social media) and insights about the relationship between such communication, affective citizenship and citizens’ trust in the state and politics.
