Description
Who we are:
We are Durham University students and early-career thinkers passionate about how behavioural science can shape better decision-making in everyday life, policy, organisations, and social systems. We explore how small changes in context, messaging, incentives and design influence behaviour.
What we do:
-
Host academic talks and speaker events, often in collaboration with other societies, universities, academic professors, and businesses to bring experts in behavioural science to Durham.
-
Run seminars, discussions, and workshops to engage students across disciplines in behaviour change, nudging, experimental methods, and applied behavioural work.
-
Have fun socials with like-minded people
-
Publish accessible content to share behavioural insights, case studies, and current research with our community
-
Offer a space for networking, learning, mentorship, and collaboration among students interested in behavioural science
