Policy impact refers to the effect or influence that a specific policy or set of policies has on a target population, the economy, social structures, or the environment. It encompasses the changes induced by the implementation of policies aimed at achieving particular objectives, such as improving public health, enhancing economic performance, or fostering social equity. Evaluating policy impact involves analyzing both intended and unintended consequences, which can be direct or indirect, short-term or long-term. The assessment may include quantitative measures (like statistical data) and qualitative insights (like public perceptions).
