On the Evidence

For the final episode of 2023, Mathematica’s On the Evidence podcast asked friends of the show to send short voice notes about important developments in evidence and well-being this year that will continue to matter in 2024. More than a dozen listeners and former guests responded to our call, highlighting significant milestones in health care, early childhood education, economic opportunity, climate change, disability policy, gender equality, and government agencies’ growing capacity to generate evidence that can improve programs’ effectiveness in the United States and abroad. On the episode, host J.B. Wogan discusses the year-in-review submissions with the show’s producer, Rick Stoddard.
