The evaluation of public policies and social programs is a trend that is increasingly common and accepted worldwide, says Dan Levy, a professor at the Harvard Kennedy School of Government and faculty member of the IESE program dedicated to this subject. According to Levy, the current trend is to measure their effectiveness through their impact on beneficiaries to decide which ones are really useful and should get the lion's share of resources. The professor also notes that current political leaders must be able to straddle the line between the public and private sectors and understand the need for collaboration between them.
