The Harvard Kennedy School’s social impact bond technical assistance lab (SIB Lab) conducts research on how governments can foster social innovation and improve the results they obtain with their social spending.  An important part of our research model involves providing pro bono technical assistance to state and local governments implementing pay-for-success contracts using social impact bonds. Through this hands-on involvement, we gain insights into the barriers that governments face and the solutions that can overcome the barriers.  By engaging current students and recent graduates in this effort, we are able to provide experiential learning as well.  The links to the left provide further information on social impact bonds and the work of the SIB Lab.
