Practitioner briefs
Short, practical papers for economic development professionals. Each brief takes one problem practitioners actually face, lays out what the data says, and ends with steps you can run in your own department. No academic throat-clearing.
New briefs are published as the work warrants, not on a content calendar. If you want them as they land, ask for the practitioner list through the contact page.
