Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab

The Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL) is a research center at Massachusetts Institute of Technology whose members advocate using randomized evaluations to study poverty alleviation. J-PAL collaborates with governments, NGOs and international development organizations to scale-up programs found to be effective〔(About J-PAL | The Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab )〕 and aims to create a "culture of demanding evidence" to back up policy in the developing world.〔(Boston Review — Rachel Glennerster and Michael Kremer: Small Changes, Big Results For The World's Poor )〕
==History and mission==

Founded in 2003 as the “Poverty Action Lab,” J-PAL is currently directed by Esther Duflo, Abhijit Banerjee, Benjamin Olken, and Rachel Glennerster. J-PAL was established to support randomized evaluations measuring interventions against poverty, on topics ranging from agriculture and health to governance and education. The Lab was renamed in honor of Abdul Latif Jameel when his son, MIT alumnus Mohammed Abdul Latif Jameel, supported it with three major endowments in 2005.〔(MIT alumnus backs Poverty Action Lab with 3 major endowments - MIT News Office )〕 He further endowed its activities in 2009.〔(Home | ArabNews )〕
A 2010 Business Week story, "The Pragmatic Rebels," termed J-PAL's approach that of "a new breed of skeptical empiricists committed to assiduous testing and tangible results".〔(The Pragmatic Rebels - Businessweek )〕 According to Nicolas Kristof, J-PAL has led a "revolution in evaluation";〔http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/22/books/review/Kristof-t.html?_r=1〕 its philosophy and methods are part of a larger trend towards "applying behavioral economics to global development."〔 In his review of Banerjee and Duflo's book ''Poor Economics'', Bill Gates wrote: "To me, what’s really great about J-PAL is that it’s producing scientific evidence that can help make our anti-poverty efforts more effective."〔(Poor Economics: A Radical Rethinking of the Way to Fight Global Poverty book review by Bill Gates )〕
