Dr. Natthapoj Vincent Trakulphadetkrai was invited to learn about the government’s Evaluation Task Force (ETF) at the UK's Cabinet Office in London and to introduce his ESRC-funded UKRI Policy Fellowship project to the ETF.
 
The ETF is a joint Cabinet Office - HM Treasury unit set up following the 2020 Spending Review to ensure evidence sits at the heart of government decision making. It aims to achieve this by working closely with government departments to increase the number and quality of evaluations being carried out.

​The ETF also serves as the Secretariat of the What Works Network (WWN) which sets out to use evidence to improve the design and delivery of public services. The WWN currently has nine full members including the Education Endowment Foundation (EEF), the host of Dr. Trakulphadetkrai’s Policy Fellowship.
 
At this meeting, Dr. Trakulphadetkrai also got to introduce his Fellowship project to ETF colleagues and to discuss how the ETF could support his and other Fellows’ projects.
