About

What We Do

We offer what few others do: combining social science with innovative design thinking to leverage the power of individuals and communities towards solving our most pressing social and environmental problems. We bring together leading academics and practitioners from around the world to develop a “Playbook” for behavior change interventions that work. Our team brings an unparalleled combination of academic and professional experience, industry relationships, and subject matter expertise.

While there are many evaluators and consultants working to determine whether a given program or intervention works, few delve deeply into the more nuanced questions of how they work best, which is required for optimization and continued growth. As researchers, this is in our DNA and is what we do.

We strongly believe that there is no clear recipe for social change, but a methodological approach that leverages key insights from behavioral science combined with practical knowledge gained from on-the-ground experience, is the best path to success.

How We Do It

The SCI playbook provides a how-to-guide for program implementers, managers, researchers and evaluators to support the integration of behavioral science into new and existing energy efficiency programs. This includes step-by-step processes and best practices for program design using SCI’s Building Blocks of Behavior Change model as well as guidance for leveraging social science into customer-facing communications to help improve program participation and increase program effectiveness.
