Bharti Institute of Public Policy, Indian School of Business

The Bharti Institute of Public Policy was set up in a partnership between Bharti Enterprises and the Indian School of Business, with the Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy, Tufts University (USA) as its partner school. It is an independent think-tank with the objectives: (a) To promote high quality research to guide policy formulation and implementation; (b) To provide both degree and short-term programs; (c) To better appreciate, formulate, and implement public policies; (d) To engage with and inform policy formulation and implementation, particularly in a developing country setting.


The institute launched a Management Programme in Public Policy (MPPP) in April 2015, to benefit mid-career professionals in the public and private sectors. MPPP provides a rigorous and inter-disciplinary conceptual learning experience for high-performing civil servants and private sector professionals. The institute also offers the ISB UNICEF Evaluation Programme.
