What is ABCD?

Atlas of Behavior Change in Development (ABCD) is a SaaS platform designed to make the entire development sector value chain behaviorally adept. It helps organizations embed behavioral science into program design and execution, making behavior change strategies time and cost-effective. ABCD provides tools like our behavior library, AI-driven analysis, and customizable workspaces to support organizations across the development sector.

Whether you are a funding organization, a non-profit, or a consultant, ABCD offers tailored solutions for every part of the development value chain:

  • Funders: Evaluate new proposals for behavioral effectiveness and help existing grantees apply behavior science for greater impact.
  • Non-profits: Quickly build knowledge on new topics, make programs stick, and showcase your work to donors.
  • Development Journalists: Use ABCD to deepen your understanding of development topics and behavior change strategies to enhance your reporting.
  • Development Consultants: Apply behavioral insights to refine proposals, program designs, and strategies for clients.
  • Private sector: Use ABCD to understand how behavior change can improve the effectiveness of your products, services, and programs focused on topics such as handwashing with soap, vaccination, EVs, and more.

Organisations can be users, contributors, or supporters to ABCD. As a user, you can signup (as an individual or an organisation) and start using all of our tools and data for free. As a contributor you can upload your research materials, behavioral toolkits, or even register yourself as an expert or a partner organisation. As a supporter or funder, you can get in touch with us to discuss if there are specific new behaivors you would like us to include on the platform.

We’re continuously expanding to cover more behaviors and invite partners to collaborate on new topics.
