Educate: ispu uses what we learn to educate the general public and raise awareness. We reach millions of people every year through in-person and digital education events, exhibits, convenings, media coverage, and more. To multiply our impact, we partner with other organizations and leaders to increase our reach to audiences who may not be immediately familiar with ispu.

Expenses: $241K

Equip: ispu equips journalists, policymakers, community leaders, teachers, advocates and others by providing evidenced-based resources and recommendations to use in their own work. Through workshops, toolkits, infographics, videos and more, we help changemakers do their work smarter and more effectively. Equipping others multiplies our impact as the data lives on in the work of those who join us in catalyzing change.
