Retrospect offers policymakers and other stakeholders a unique tool to monitor emerging trends, stimulate discussions, and ensure that debates are grounded in empirical evidence.
Each month, concise summaries of most influential cases from around the world are crowd-ranked by the I&J Observatory, a group of leading academic experts, and the top 20 cases are added to the I&J Retrospect Database. The database is the culmination of a diligent process of monitoring, documenting, and synthesizing policy developments that the I&J Secretariat has carried out since 2012.
