The Joe Duncan Group has been at the forefront of research in the field of societal and global development starting with the development of human beings, their lives and their ability to operate and function in modern society – as well as in the environments they interact with on a daily basis.
Our Gen 1.0 research program which spanned just over 10 years (2014 – 2024) was heavily focused on the development of life systems for human beings and finding solutions to the very real problems that people deal with in our world today.
We consider this the most pressing challenge of our time and believe that global development and building a better future starts by deeply understanding the challenges humans face in their lives and by actively working to develop solutions that improve lives on the ground and create better societal outcomes.
