About the Campbell Collaboration
The Campbell Collaboration is an international network of policymakers, researchers, practitioners and consumers who prepare systematic reviews of studies that examine the effects of interventions in education, crime and justice, and social welfare. The group aims to understand the needs of policy makers and practitioners and provide better evidence for decision-making in the policy arena.

An annual colloquium brings together participants from more than 20 nations on more than five continents who represent various governments, social agencies, universities, research organizations, foundations, and non-profit and private for-profit organizations. The scientific program includes presentations on methodological research and developments that support the mission as well as the development of the Collaboration and partner organizations.
