Our work spans more than 25 countries and encompasses economic mobility, health, education, consumer finance, criminal justice, energy efficiency and international development. As a global, nonprofit organization, our partners include governments, foundations, companies and many other institutions. 

At its core, behavioral science helps us understand human behavior and why people make the decisions they do. It teaches us that context matters, that asking the right questions is critical and that simple solutions are often available, but frequently overlooked or dismissed. We work to identify the subtle but important contextual details that can have a disproportionate impact on outcomes.
