Human behaviour
Focus on human behaviour
No government works well without taking into what individuals feel and do – whether in thinking about its citizens or about the motivations of its own leaders and public sector workers. Across academic fields including behavioural science, behavioural economics and psychology, our work explores how people behave and respond, and what that means for good government.
