IDF is a privately funded, non-profit, non-partisan research foundation set up as a Trust on April 2, 2003. Its major objective
is to develop awareness about how markets work, why they are
desirable and how we can develop them. IDF aims to help policy
makers transform emerging economies into market based societies.
There are three aspects to its activities:
 |
to offer recommendations on what
needs to be done. These recommendations are derived from
research and analysis; |
|
to generate a blue-print of how to
implement the recommendations. These are worked out through
interaction with practitioners and stakeholders; and |
|
to disseminate its work through publications
in peer-reviewed journals, workshops, seminars and various
media to reach out to practitioners, policymakers and
the general public. It also undertakes pilot projects
to demonstrate how its recommendations can be realized. |
