14.5 APPLYING ANJUNG FRAMEWORK BEYOND THE NSTPI The ANJUNG Framework has the following benefits that potentially can be applied in the analysis of

other policy areas that has similar features as the STI ecosystem:

i. Recognition of diversity of nations allows for a serious appreciation of the local context and integration of the global with the local;

ii. Bridging the three social inclusion policy analysis tools (UNESCO Analytical Framework, Equiframe, EquIPP) to a policy not often readily associated with ‘social inclusion’;

iii. Assistance in the characterisation of the ecosystem in which the policy operates; iv.

Enhancement of participation and engagement of stakeholders; v.

Identification of key gatekeepers, drivers, agents and implementers of the policy ecosystem studied;

vi. Relational to global agenda which links the local context to the global discourse on issues of social inclusion; and

vii. Promotion of sustainability through strengthening of partnerships, improving network integration and empowering stakeholders.

In light of the above benefits – direct and indirect – it is proposed here that the ANJUNG Framework may be of use as a complementary tool for other countries that are undertaking the assessment of social inclusion in their public policies.
