The SAP Lab promotes the application of Behavioral Insights to drive significant social impact.
Behavioural approaches offer a potentially powerful new set of tools for policymakers that aid in understanding the structural context that drives decision-making which may result in structural solutions to policy challenges.
By understanding Behavioural Insights, policymakers can facilitate behavioural interventions or nudges into their policy-making keeping people at the center.
The Lab has collaborated with governmental counterparts for designing and implementing Central and State flagship initiatives at the state, district, and block levels of Gujarat. The focus involves researching critical behavioural indicators in health, nutrition, education, water sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH).
