DIFIS-Studie 2025/2: Social Policy and Social Policy Research in Italy. Teaching, Data infrastructure and Policy Advice
Most social policy teaching in higher education occurs in BA and MA programmes in social work, where social policy constitutes an important major. Additionally, programmes in political science and sociology often include teaching on welfare studies Social policymaking in Italy is fragmented across various governance levels and actors, often lacking coordination. Therefore, policy advice from civil organisations, think tanks and public bodies with consultancy roles in social policies is embedded in and has to be attuned to this complex landscape. In the Italian context, data infrastructures focused on social policy are similarly fragmented. As social policy encompasses various interconnected fields, several data sources that provide valuable information for social policy research and policymaking can be identified.
