At New Incentives, we envision a world in which no child dies from a vaccine-preventable disease, and we are on a mission to implement evidence-based programming to save lives in a manner that does the most good per dollar. We provide small cash incentives to caregivers in northern Nigeria in order to increase childhood vaccination rates.
We operate in northern Nigeria, which has some of the highest under-five mortality rates in the world—27x the rate of the UK and 18x the rate of the US.
An independent randomized control trial showed that our program doubled the percentage of infants who were fully vaccinated, increasing coverage from roughly a quarter to just over half of all infants in the areas we serve.
New Incentives is a GiveWell top charity and recommended by The Life You Can Save.
