Changes

**I’d like to do another piece, specifically on where the R&D budget for the public sector is being allocated. Is it going solely to STEM? Are policy innovation and other less-stereotypical types of innovation being encouraged?*potential to do an article on the commercialization of innovation in the public sector- often, innovators within the government do not commercializa their product even though they could probably benefit from it

 ==Unused research/paragraphs:== *From a broader societal perspective, having more women in the workforce benefits families greatly. According to data from the Half the Sky movement for women and girls, women reinvest 90% of their income in their families and are more likely than men to spend their earnings on food, education, and healthcare. Strictly from an economic perspective, involving more women in the workforce also increases productivity within the economy, increasing GDP.*That is why the public sector must be encouraged to think outside of the box and innovate better methods for approaching challenges.*There are some countries, like the Democratic Republic of Congo, in which 100% of all R&D expenditures are publicly-funded.
