Our Vision: A world in which people with diverse forms of expertise seamlessly learn from each other, particularly those working to understand and solve complex social problems.

Our Mission: Creating new collaborative relationships, for both informal knowledge exchange and formal partnerships, are at the core of everything we do to realize that vision:

  • Matchmaking: We apply an evidence-based approach for directly connecting social scientists and practitioners, and social scientists and local policymakers.
  • Short Articles: We share what we're learning about the science of collaboration.
  • Workshops: We lead interactive workshops that provide participants with the tools they need to initiate new collaborative relationships themselves.
  • Newsletters: We inform our community of 1800+ researchers, practitioners, and policymakers about new opportunities to bridge social science and practice.
