Brandyn Keating is founder and CEO of YOUnify, a non-profit focused on creating the conditions for individual, community and ecosystemic flourishing. In education, YOUnify piloted an innovative parent liaison program during the height of the COVID pandemic. A civic engagement innovator, Keating has overseen over two dozen randomized controlled experiments conducted with social scientists, including first-of-their-kind studies on the most effective ways to reduce political polarization, cultural divisions and increase prosocial civic engagement. One intervention that Keating recently designed was a winner of Stanford University's Strengthening Democracy Challenge based on its ability to significantly reduce affective polarization. Keating served in leadership roles on both of President Obama’s campaigns and in national nonprofits. Co-author, Global Flourishing Goals 2050 Discussion Paper; J.D., Suffolk University Law School.
