The book asks these central questions: What is the state of the art in the development of welfare programs? What do we know works in these programs and what does not? How can an understanding of behavioral science better inform the design, delivery, and evaluation of welfare programs?\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe latest title in the Behaviourally Informed Organizations series, the book develops a nuanced framework for how governments, practitioners, and society in general should design cash transfer programs to improve inclusivity, reduce poverty, and improve equality. It draws on field experiments and case studies to showcase past successes, while also building frameworks and developing prescriptive advice that we can give to practitioners who are looking to design a behaviorally informed cash transfer program. With contributions from leading academics as well as seasoned practitioners, \u003ci\u003eCash Transfers for Inclusive Societies\u003c\/i\u003e presents a new model to policymakers to study and shift the discourse on poverty alleviation from purely economic factors to also behavioral ones. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgments \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003cbr\u003eDilip Soman, Saugato Datta and Jiaying Zhao\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePart 1: Why Behavioral Science Matters for Inclusive Societies\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.
