Concise synthesis of major findings
The conclusion and recommendations element usually begins with a synthesis of the most important findings from the previous two elements of the study (problem description and policy options). Because a policy study may be long, complex and detailed, drawing conclusions and providing a review and synthesis of main findings is an important step before detailing specific recommendations. However, this feature should consist of more than a summary or repetition of the main findings, i.e., a synthesis which ties together and highlights only the significant outcomes of the analysis and serves the purpose of providing support and justification for the policy recommendations which will follow.
(A) Set of policy recommendations
This feature outlines the practical steps that need to be taken to implement the chosen policy option argued for in the previous policy options element of the paper. This feature is central to the whole policy paper, as the ultimate aim of the study is not to gather and analyze data about a policy problem, but to develop a set of recommendations on the basis of the research conducted.
(A) Recommendations can be:
• Put in a separate section with a heading which signals their importance;
• Numbered and indented in the text;
• Separated using bullet points;
• Italicized to highlight the key part or main idea.
(B) Concluding remarks
Include some brief concluding remarks to close the argument developed throughout the policy paper. This feature also serves to leave the reader with some final thoughts on the subject of the paper. A common approach Divide and present the proposed solution in separate measures adopted by writers in this feature is to bring the discussion of the subject full circle, i.e., return the focus of the discussion to the broader context of the problem, which commonly opens the introduction element of the paper. This may give a final sense of completeness and wholeness to the paper and can effectively close the argument by illustrating to the reader that implementing the proposed solutions to the problem will have a wider impact on society.
