Oxford Policy Institute

The Oxford Policy Institute (OPI) is an independent, not-for-profit research organisation. Its objective is to provide a service for policy managers by compiling evidence for the best ways to organise and deliver public services in different settings. It is developing a portfolio of international comparative research projects to study the incentives that motivate good public sector performance and the delivery of quality public services. Oxford Policy Institute is a virtual organisation, meaning it has little reality other than its website.

This does say that OPI has close links to the Oxford Policy Management (OPM), a consultancy company, although each is separately governed, managed and financed.

Their adress is the same as the Foreign Service Programme, Queen Elizabeth House, 3 Mansfield Road, Oxford OX1 3TB. This degree course seeks to prepare students for careers in diplomacy: once vetted by the Diplomacy Admissions Committee. This is also the address of Queen Elizabeth House
