    Delivering Better Policies Through Behavioural Insights - New Approaches

    As behavioural insights (BI) become more widely used, countries are looking to expand the application of the methodology to new frontiers of policy making. This report tests behaviourally informed solutions to complex policy problems in the fields of competition, consumer protection, energy consumption and safety through a variety of theoretical and experimental approaches.

    Business Models for the Circular Economy - Opportunities and Challenges for Policy

    Natural resources, and the materials derived from them, represent the physical basis for the economic system. Recent decades have witnessed an unprecedented growth in demand for these resources, which has triggered interest from policy makers in transitioning to a more resource efficient and circular economy. This report presents a typology of five circular business models that could support the transition to a more resource efficient and circular economy: circular supply, resource recovery, product life extension, sharing, and product service system models. It reviews the current market penetration and assesses the potential scalability of each business model. Environmental potential is also discussed, as well as risks and unintended consequences that could result from a more widespread adoption of these business models. The report provides a broad set of policy approaches that could help alleviate some of the barriers that currently hinder the widespread adoption of circular business models.

    OECD Reviews of Innovation Policy: Austria 2018

    Over the past two decades, Austria has become one of the most R&D intensive economies among OECD countries and in the world, dedicating 3.1% of its GDP on R&D in 2016, the second highest figure in the European Union. To fully harness this R&D capacity, Austrian innovation policy needs to put a stronger emphasis on efficiency in transforming R&D inputs into impacts. To achieve higher impacts, Austria also needs to steer its research and innovation system towards leadership excellence in global markets. This requires enhanced international attractiveness for top-level researchers and talent, and a conducive environment for highly innovative enterprises. Austria could also benefit from strengthening R&D and innovation to support key transitions, such as digitalisation and Industry 4.0, and to tackle key societal challenges. The STI policy mix and governance arrangements should be adapted accordingly.

    Le Système d'innovation de la fonction publique du Canada

    Les gouvernements d'aujourd'hui sont confrontés à un ensemble complexe de problèmes interdépendants, d'attentes croissantes des citoyens et de contraintes budgétaires. En outre, ils doivent opérer dans un contexte de changements rapides, géopolitiques, économiques, sociaux et environnementaux. Les politiques et programmes actuels risquent de ne pas être adaptés pour relever les défis d'aujourd'hui, encore moins ceux de demain. Les gouvernements ont donc besoin d'une approche systémique de l'innovation dans le secteur public pour développer et proposer des solutions innovantes qui répondent aux besoins actuels et futurs des citoyens. Ce rapport examine l'expérience et le contexte de la fonction publique du Canada (où l'accent a été mis sur l'innovation), et propose un nouveau système d'innovation du secteur public pour aider le Canada et d’autres pays.
