Announcing a call for COVID-19 response ideas.

Announcing COVID-19 Call for Ideas

The Mercatus Center, building on its COVID-19 policy brief series

[link removed]

, welcomes proposals for policy briefs, working papers, and articles that address the next round of challenges facing the United States and other countries in the response to the pandemic.

We seek clear, original ideas that address policy and social questions such as:

Reopening and Restarting

Institutional Challenges

Health and Science Policy

Economic and Regulatory Policy

Monetary Policy

Ideas for papers will be evaluated for their originality and for the quality of their exposition. Papers can take one of three general formats: policy briefs, longer-form working papers, and articles for the Mercatus Center’s online magazine, The Bridge

.

Policy briefs should be short (1,000–2,500 words) and tightly argued, with a clear audience and actionable recommendations. Working papers (6,000 words or longer) should make original empirical, theoretical, or normative contributions that will inform policymakers, the philanthropic sector, civil society, and the private sector. Bridge articles (750–1,500 words) should follow the style of a feature article in a public affairs magazine (such as The Atlantic or City Journal) and be accessible and informative to nonspecialists.
