Far too often politics, not evidence, drive policy and program decisions by governments, donors, international organizations, and practitioners. We are transforming the way evidence is used by empowering decision-makers at every level to more actively engage with evidence to bring about positive change for at-risk and marginalized populations through four strategic priorities. “Feinstein research stands out for its in-depth qualitative approach…They are atypical academics in that they are willing to engage in tough issues and tough places and are geared towards informing decision-making, not just working for the sake of research generation.”-Jon Kurtz, Mercy CorpsVisit Site
