The PSRG also works with an expert network of both national and international associates to ensure they have the best range of skill sets for any task at hand.The PSRG’s inter-disciplinary, inter-methodological approach sets it apart from other research groups of its kind, with Dickinson highlighting its relevance given the changing face of modern public service.
