BOLD
Education
Science for growing minds: The global platform for scientific knowledge that is changing children’s lives.
About us
What happens in children’s and young people’s brains when they learn? What does the ideal learning and development environment for each individual look like? Which programs and technologies should be pursued? Which decision makers need to be involved to improve development and learning conditions? The Jacobs Foundation and its large network have been seeking answers to these questions for over 25 years, aware that the resulting findings and insights must be disseminated, debated, and translated into action. BOLD is a global platform for scientific knowledge that is changing children’s lives. We empower caregivers and educators with the information and tools they need to help every child learn and develop. Our extensive knowledge network is made up of researchers, journalists, and practitioners who are all passionate, curious, and rigorous in their pursuit of the latest scientific thinking on child learning and development. Our content is evidence-based, so caregivers and educators can be confident they have the facts they need to enable children to thrive.
