ABOUT IDINSIGHT We're a global data and evidence advisory, working with governments, philanthropies, and non-profits to improve lives at scale, using technology and AI where they can deliver the most impact. IDinsight is a global nonprofit that equips leaders with the data, evidence, and technology to improve lives at scale. We partner with governments, NGOs, multilaterals, and funders to support decisions at every stage of their impact journey – from bold pilots to nationwide scale-ups. Our teams bring rigorous evidence and practical insights so leaders can make informed decisions that truly change lives.

With our partners, we are pioneering the next frontier of social impact, where data and technology accelerate progress for millions. We help leaders overcome the three main barriers to impact: 1. Figuring out what works 2. Learning and improving 3. Reaching and operating at scale We work in multiple countries across Asia and Africa. Our work spans a wide range of sectors, including agriculture, education, health, governance, sanitation, financial inclusion, and other areas. We have expertise in a variety of rigorous approaches and methodologies, which we tailor to each client depending on their needs and constraints.

To achieve a positive social impact, we: - Support our partners with the full ‘data and evidence’ value chain – from primary data collection to data systems, monitoring, evaluation, and learning tools, and data science - Inform funding decisions – toward high-impact initiatives and away from less effective programs or approaches - Create cutting-edge AI-for-good products that make the delivery of social interventions and learning tools more cost-effective and scalable Our diverse, growing team of roughly 250 outstanding colleagues operates in nearly two dozen countries around the world.
