Event Description

Dr. Michael Hallsworth, Managing Director of the Behavioral Insights Team (BIT) Americas and BIT Advisor and SPIA alumna Jasmine Pineda, will discuss "A Manifesto for Applying Behavior Science," newly published in Nature Behavioral Science, Friday, April 7, at 12:15pm via Zoom.

The piece draws together the main criticisms and challenges facing behavioral science today, covers the latest advances in the field, and sets out ten proposals to improve how behavioral science is applied in the future. The manifesto condenses a more detailed analysis laid out in the full version of the report, which spells out exactly how these proposals would work in practice and who is responsible for achieving them, from academics to funders.
