Summary
This chapter introduces the reader to the problem of policy prioritisation and why quantitative/computational analytic frameworks are much needed. We explain the various academic- and policy-oriented motivations for developing the Policy Priority Inference research programme. We apply this computational framework in the study of the SDGs and the feasibility of the 2030 Agenda of sustainable development.
