Our Vision Solving for Business: Because Business Drives Economic Growth and Social Freedom At the William Davidson Institute at the University of Michigan, unlocking the power of business to provide lasting economic and social prosperity in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) is in our DNA.

This is what we mean by Solving for Business—our calling since the Institute was first founded as an independent nonprofit educational organization in 1992. We believe societies that empower individuals with the tools and skills to excel in business, in turn generate both economic growth and social freedom—or the agency necessary for people to thrive. We endeavor to make this vision a reality by collaborating with local and multinational firms, University of Michigan scholars and enterprising students, as well as experts in a variety of fields. Our Consulting work focuses on developing, adapting and applying sound business principles in interrelated economic sectors that are essential for vibrant economies. Our Training programs incorporate the latest thinking in management education, consider the local context and help to shape learners into the global leaders of today and tomorrow.

OUR MISSION HighScope is on a mission to close the opportunity gap through high-quality early education. OUR VISION To create a world where every child has the opportunity to realize their full potential, regardless of their circumstances. Because, we believe that high-quality early education has the power to change the trajectory of the world, one child at a time. WHAT WE DO At HighScope, we believe that every child deserves a high-quality, equitable early education. This conviction for equity has been the center of our early childhood research and what we practice in the classroom. We care deeply about the people we serve. That’s why we are dedicated to providing an early childhood education that supports every child and every community. We create strong instructional leaders across the country and around the world — helping programs build capacity for sustained positive outcomes and ensuring every teacher is supported and every child can thrive. HOW DO WE DO IT? We work side-by-side with teachers and programs studying classroom practice and child outcomes. Then, we bring the best of that research as evidence to support local, state, and national policies that advance the field of early childhood education. Our research defines best practices in early education and we use that knowledge to design HighScope products and services that empower early educators and ensure young children receive a high-quality education. WHY IT MATTERS Research proves that high-quality early education improves a child’s chances for long-term success. Children who receive high-quality early education compared to those who do not: • Are more prepared for school • Have higher graduation rates and college attendance • Have more stable employment and higher salaries • Create more stable home environments for children • Are healthier adults • Are more civically-engaged Join us — together we can empower educators, lift communities, and prepare children for school and for life.
