Leveraging its organizational strength in creating a space where anyone looking to change society—such as startups, large corporations, local governments, and the social sector—can gather, learn, and connect beyond the boundaries of public and private sectors, PMI will launch the 'Rulemaking Academy' in May 2026. This is a 6-month program to systematically acquire the thinking and practical skills of rulemaking using real cases alongside top runners in policy and law.

▪️Overview of the 'Rulemaking 1-day Camp' held on Saturday, June 27
To move practical operations beyond the barriers of the public and private sectors, a 'common language' understood by both sides is essential.
