In 2018, Nudge Lebanon organized the first ever summit on Behavioral Economics in the Middle East in partnership with the Carnegie Corporation of New York, the American University of Beirut, Harvard Business Review Arabia, and Nudgeco:
“Behavioral Economics and Nudge in the Arab Region – Lessons Learned & Challenges Ahead”
The summit exceeded all expectations, gathering prominent speakers from academia, nudge units around the world, governments, NGOs and private sector organizations:
The summit achieved its main objectives to 1) build greater awareness around the power of behavioral insights in addressing many of the region’s policy challenges with behavioral roots, and 2) create a platform for collaboration and partnership between government officials, academia, NGOS and the private sector in a wide range of public policy areas, including public finance management, inclusion, entrepreneurship, sustainability, health, education, compliance, rule of law, anti-corruption, and the prevention of violent extremism.
