The ability to choose the right approach between adaptive policy approach, public policy network approach, closed innovation diffusion policy approach & open innovation diffusion policy approach in this condition is very important

Proposing a contingency framework to choose the right approach between Stage process model, policy network approach, policy innovation diffusion and adaptive approach

Qualitative Research Method by means of mixed metasynthesis and Delphi technique. Metasynthesis has been conducted by Sandelowski and barroso (2007) technique & Delphi technique has been recurred 4 times in this research.

Three variables including predictability, participatory and innovativeness can define applicability conditions of each approaches including stage, network, innovation diffusion and adaptive

The applicability of each approach is not general and each of them has a unique condition.
