The Earth Institute is set on finding solutions to the many complex issues facing our planet, with a focus on sustainable development and ending poverty.

We believe the necessary science and technology already exist, and that we can improve conditions for the world’s poor while also preserving the Earth’s natural environment.

Directed by Jeffrey Sachs, the Earth Institute supports pioneering projects in the biological, engineering, social, health, and interdisciplinary sciences to meet these important goals.
