Meet the Team

Our team is made up of researchers, implementers, returned Peace Corps volunteers, strategists, graphic designers, data visualizers, and communications experts. Some of us came from academia, others from non-profits and the private sector. We all believe that the world needs more curiosity, understanding, and action.
