Social & behavioral research
When we launched in 2006, we specialized in psychology-driven technology and behavioral impact studies.
Over the years, we developed a reputation for evaluating global social change programs, working with various United Nations agencies, global non-profit organizations, and governments.
Many of our studies were private. So here are the ones we published.
