Three new publications are worth noting:
1. Instiglio’s study on SIBs in SE Asia. In 2013, the World Health Organization commissioned Instiglio to research the application of social impact bonds to expanding universal healthcare in Southeast Asia. I led the team that wrote the report. The report has been winding its way through the editorial process throughout 2014. I expect the report to be released in a special journal of the WHO in the first quarter of 2015.
2. Two case studies published by Harvard Kennedy School about Instiglio. Dan Levy and Pam Varley at HKS have written two case studies about our organization. The first case is designed for a policy analysis class; the second for a statistics class. (Both are available for purchase at Harvard Business Publishing.) I heard from a colleague that the policy analysis case was also taught in the Business at the Base of the Pyramid (BBOP) class at HBS this year, which is exciting and humbling because I took that class 2.5 years ago. (I don’t believe I took the HKS classes where these case studies are being taught as well.)
