Principles & Standards


Principles and Standards

One of the Benefit-Cost Analysis Center's main projects is to help establish principles and standards for the use of benefit-cost analysis, particularly with respect to social programming. The center has commissioned papers from leaders in various fields, with the goal of establishing preliminary principles and standards by the end of 2009. The Principles and Standards project is funded through the MacArthur Foundation.
