# Mechanism Design for Social Good #  MD4SG is a multi-institutional initiative bringing together researchers and practitioners from over 130 institutions in 50 countries. We take an interdisciplinary approach - using insights from computer science, social sciences, and humanistic studies as well as collaborations and partnerships with domain experts and impacted communities - to help improve access to opportunity. We focus on a range of domains from inequality to climate and energy to data economies and civic participation.
