Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab

The Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) is a research organization that evaluates policies and programs aimed at reducing poverty worldwide. It uses rigorous studies, such as randomized controlled trials, to assess what interventions—like education, healthcare, or financial aid—are most effective. J-PAL's goal is to provide policymakers with reliable evidence to make informed decisions that improve lives and promote economic development in a sustainable way.
