WRKSHP-POL THEORY/POL ANALYSIS (BL-WPTP-IUBLA)

The Ostrom Workshop focuses on the study of governance as it relates to a variety of research areas. We have five established research programs: Commons Governance; Cybersecurity & Internet Governance; Data Management & Information Governance; Environment & Natural Resource Governance; and Political Economy. Over the years, we hope to add other programs as they fit into our ever-changing research agenda.

We seek to leverage the knowledge produced both within and across research programs in order to enhance educational opportunities for students at IU and worldwide, produce innovative and policy-relevant research, and increase the scope for multidisciplinary collaborations.
