Overview
The MIT Governance Lab is a research group of political scientists focused on innovation in citizen engagement and government responsiveness. This grant will enable the Governance Lab to collaborate with civil society organizations, funders, and governments on research that builds and tests theories about how innovative programs and technologies can improve civic participation and make governments more accountable to citizens. In addition to contributing rigorous evidence to inform current debates over participation, accountability, and governmental performance, the Governance Lab will also help organizations integrate this learning into their daily operations.
