objective:

The goal of this forum is to develop a community of academics and practitioners who are interested in harnessing behavioural science to improve the effectiveness of cash transfer (and other welfare) programs via better design and delivery of the welfare program. This will be achieved through research, debate and discussion, and the development of content that would be helpful to academics and practitioners.

About:

This forum comprises of four groups of people:

(a) Policymakers (who are interested in learning more about decision making and resource allocation around the welfare program)

(b) Practitioners (who would like to learn about the design and delivery features of programs).

(c) Researchers currently working in the area (who are looking to enhance the impact on their research) and

(d) other behavioural scientists (who would like to interact with stakeholders to apply theories to welfare programs).
