This special issue is the long-awaited collaboration between the Journal of Interdisciplinary Public Policy (JIPP) and The Greater Good Initiative (GGI). The publication features a collection of policies and writings under the theme of equity in policy. The issue begins with a joint foreword from JIPP founder and Editor-in-Chief Maanas Sharma and GGI co-founders and Presidents Adam Ashley and Tarina Ahuja. We then go on to discuss four policy proposals and various perspectives of youth engagement in the policy sector.
