About LEEP
LEEP is an impact-driven, evidence-based nonprofit that aims to eliminate childhood lead poisoning, which affects an estimated one in three children worldwide. We primarily focus on one important source of exposure: lead paint. Our paint programs involve generating data, supporting governments with the introduction and enforcement of regulation, and assisting manufacturers in switching to lead-free paints. Beyond our paint programs, we are piloting interventions to address other sources of lead exposure, such as spices and cosmetics.
Since Our Founding In September 2020
- We have initiated lead paint elimination programs in 37 countries and completed paint studies in 22.
- We have agreed on goals to establish lead paint regulation with government agencies in 18 countries (e.g., in Angola).
- We have received reports in 17 countries of manufacturers representing more than 50% of the lead paint market share (in that country) reformulating to lead-free (e.g., in Pakistan).
- We have conducted a repeat paint study which showed more than a 50% reduction in lead paint market share since our initial study in Malawi.
- Founders Pledge estimates that it costs 1.66 to prevent one child's lead exposure (in expectation) through our work, making LEEP one of its most cost-effective nonprofit recommendations. Our own analysis estimates that it costs under 5 to avert one DALY-equivalent through LEEP's first 13 established programs.
- We are a partner of the WHO and UN Environment Programme's Global Alliance to Eliminate Lead Paint, and a member of the Partnership for a Lead-Free Future, launched by USAID and UNICEF.
- We have appeared in Nature, Vox, Time Magazine, The New Yorker, Prospect, on the 80,000 Hours Podcast, at the Partnership for a Lead-Free Future launch on the sidelines of the 79th UN General Assembly, and our co-founders were named in Vox's Future Perfect 50.
