Arguably overlaps somewhat with the existing tags Forecasting, Policy Change, Political Polarisation, International Relations, Direct Democracy, and European Union
It might make more sense to instead change the name and description of Policy Change so it more clearly covers improving institutional decision-making as well
Arguments for:
Seems substantially distinct from any of the above tags, including Policy Change
A major topic in EA (e.g., one of 80k’s main problem areas, has a large FB group)
There are already 64 posts tagged Policy Change, and I’d guess >20 posts could warrant the tag Improving Institutional Decision-Making. So I think even if the topics overlapped quite a bit (which I’m not sure they do), they could each warrant a tag due to being big enough that the non-overlapping part is quite big.
(Update: I’ve now made this tag.)

The post that prompted this, because it’s clearly relevant to IIDM but doesn’t seem very relevant to Policy Change: Should We Prioritize Long-Term Existential Risk?
