The Happier Lives Institute is a new organisation pioneering a new approach to doing good. At this early stage, we have not completed sufficient research to make confident recommendations about the most effective interventions for improving happiness. However, we have identified some promising organisations which we believe are doing valuable work. If you are looking for high-impact giving opportunities to increase world happiness then this is the best place to start. |
