Our Guiding Principle in Designing for Behavior Change
What it IS NOT
Behavior Design IS NOT about the manipulation of people against their own will, knowledge or consent - for profit, power or other ends desirable only by the manipulating party.

Behavior Design IS about enabling agency and progress for people - over their own choices, well being and life outcomes - in ways that they can consent to, be aware of, experience, and enjoy!
