Publications

MOST Policy Papers

MOST Policy Papers are designed according to a specific policy analysis methodology. A generic structure produces different types of documents from the same original content, and differentiates format and access in various modes so as to respond more efficiently to different types of information needs.

MOST Digital Library

The Digital Library hosts the Programme publications in a user-friendly environment. A multilingual search engine facilitates document search by keywords, subject categories, geographical locations and nature of the document. Abstracts of all the documents are available in English, French and Spanish.
