NSA believes that strong research in socio economic aspects of public policy has a facilitating role for the success of any effort for social change. Research should be instrumental in understanding socio-economic realities. Our effort to undertake research in various development and socio-economic issues is because of our commitment towards making our policies transparent - policy makers accountable- through a participatory process of struggle-resistance-reorganisation.
