Busara is a research and consulting firm that applies behavioral science in its research to alleviate poverty in the global south. The Civic Engagement and Governance portfolio within Busara works with CSO’s in the region to drive civic engagement in their work. In particular, the portfolio works with partners to enhance their capacity to conduct research and communicate effectively with the intended audience. We intend to bridge the gap between applied behavioral science research and civil society practitioners’ strategies and interventions for better citizen engagement outcomes.  Our aim is to support CSOs to apply evidence, experimentation and innovation through behavioral science in order to better motivate and mobilize the communities and contexts they serve.
