About the Lab

The Sydney Policy Lab was created by the University of Sydney in 2018 to be a non-partisan space where people from all walks of life gather to set the agenda, experiment and make public policy that transforms lives.

The Lab’s prime focus is on and with the community. To kickstart a new ecosystem of public policy research and development, our projects build on deep relationships with civil society organisations, government and philanthropy. We prioritise working with people who have been excluded from decision-making, leadership and power.
