What we do
We make policy more experimental and data-driven through partnering with and connecting policymakers, practitioners, researchers and funders to address key policy challenges.
In order to advance our mission, we undertake different types of activities:
Help institutions become experimental
by supporting our partners to build cultures of experimentation and engage in evidence-based decision-making, from ideation to design and implementation
Drive experimental research
by conducting and supporting pilots and randomised controlled trials to develop and test ideas and help decide when it is necessary to adapt, scale or move on
Use data science & innovation mapping
by creating and using new data sources, methods, and visualisation tools to inform current and future policy
Analyse and influence policy
by researching and assessing relevant policy trends, and advocating for a more experimental approach to policymaking
Convene learning communities
by making connections and designing interventions to support exchange of lessons and best practices between policymakers, researchers, practitioners and funders
Evidence to action
by collating, analysing and sharing policy ideas and evidence with partners and policymakers
