Analytics for a Better World Institute is a non-profit collaboration between University of Amsterdam, MIT and ORTEC. Our mission "is to apply analytics to contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals”

Our target groups:
-     We work with global known NGOs or institutes and specialized/niche NGOs who have a clear fit with our mission. Thus, NGOs who have the drive, believe, commitment, and willingness to create impact with Analytics on the SDGs.
-     Partner organizations who join our mission and deliver (in-cash or in-kind) technology, licenses, services, products, funding, or support in any form.
-     Researchers, volunteers, and students who strongly care about our mission and who want to create an impact with their (in-kind) contribution

Our approach:
-	There’s an abundance of small scale experiments and research projects in the domain of SDGs and Analytics, which don’t find their way to implementation (and impact)
-	We aim to be the missing link to create this impact. By focusing on building NGO’s analytical capabilities, conducting research and driving impact by implementing analytical software and tooling.
-	We aim to have a global impact and don’t limit ourselves to specific geographic areas, techniques, topics or SDGs

Our activities:
