The world needs better institutions
From climate change to cybersecurity to mental health and well-being, we face challenges with speeds, scales, and scopes that outpace current efforts to steer toward societal goals.

There are many good options
The world has a rich history of institutional forms and an ever-growing array of technologies to help collaborate, communicate, and build collective intelligence.

We’re building a community around using them
TIAL aims to orchestrate, and mobilize practical knowledge and frameworks to design, build, and support the kinds of new — and upgraded — institutions that the world needs.
