We explore how our insights from psychology and related disciplines can be applied to democracy, education, public health, environmental sustainability, and social cohesion worldwide. Our work has been cited in over 30,000 academic papers, but we are also committed to sharing our work with leaders, policy makers, and the public to have a broader impact on the world.
