Strategies for cumulating knowledge
Project overview

- The Aggregation Challenge2025
We have multiple projects innovating on aspects of what we call the ’aggregation challenge.’ The aggregation challenge is the challenge of combining findings from multiple studies to foster cumulative learning. We think of it as one of the biggest challenges facing social scientists and that addressing it will be key for strengthening the relevance and reliability of social science findings. IPI has contributed to the metaketa initiative housed at EGAP. Metaketas are coordinated randomized trials across multiple sites with harmonized measures and analysis strategies. In addition, we are leading the meta-analysis for a multicountry collection of studies coordinated by APRIES to assess the prevalence of human trafficking prevalence estimation. Moreover, our Correlates of Corona project examines socioeconomic predictors of Covid mortality.
