@cblatts @yuenyuenang @kopalo I share the same focus on those intractable problems. And it’s great to have work like yours that help us engage them! That’s what PDIA is meant to help with too!

[Matt Andrews @governwell]

@cblatts @yuenyuenang @kopalo I’m also serious about anyone wanting to get experience doing PDIA. It’s the only way to really engage. I think there are huge limits to just observing complexity. Come play with the PDIA teams!!!! You’ll love it! Hope all well Chris!

[Matt Andrews @governwell]

@cblatts @yuenyuenang @kopalo I get it! there is lots of theory on engaging complex challenges tho (not just explaining them) + much is embedded in PDIA, which has been applied to micro + macro problems (with some best cases on growth). Being practical (which we emphasize) doesn’t mean being a-theoretical.

[Matt Andrews @governwell]

@yuenyuenang @kopalo @cblatts Unsure if the PDIA approach lacks a theoretical foundation as suggested here? Regardless I welcome all of you to join teams actually doing PDIA in practice to see how it works (and how its theoretical roots connect to reality).

@LowrieJohn @fp2p Fully agree!

[Matt Andrews @governwell]

Development policy and management is about policy work governments undertake to improve or discover what’s new … how do we do that is the question? https://t.co/KN4dostXeD

[Matt Andrews @governwell]

Redefining development policy and management: It is less about countries or geographically located people and more about the challenges policy actors face – in all countries and geographies – that require an element of change for novelty and improvement. https://t.co/KN4dostXeD

@NicSpaull Here's my post on Problem-Driven Iterative Adaptation and why it's a better way to improve schools https://t.co/KwL554XgVv

[Harry Fletcher-Wood @HFletcherWood]

I've suggested Problem-Driven Iterative Adaptation offers a better route to school improvement.

This great case @HarvardBSC study shows how @funda_wande's programme design and authorisation approach followed PDIA principles.

A few highlights below:
