Babel Institute

Babel Institute is an independent, nonpartisan public policy think tank dedicated to advancing practical policy solutions to the social, economic, and political challenges facing young people around the world.Founded in 2025, Babel brings together young leaders, scholars, and policymakers to ensure that the voices and perspectives of the next generation inform the decisions that shape their future. Through research, education, and community engagement, we develop solutions that are just, actionable, and centered on the needs of young people.At the heart of our mission is Verity Voices Journal, the publishing arm of the think tank and our youth-centered platform for commentary and storytelling. At Verity, we combine rigorous research with lived experience to examine critical issues such as migration, climate change, education reform, youth justice, and affordable housing. Our goal is to connect empirical analysis with first-hand experience, ensuring that policy is both evidence-based and responsive to the realities of the people it aims to serve.
