Exploring new approaches
Our tutors regularly publish influential research on key issues such as poverty, the impact of the climate crisis, the rise of the far-right, changes in citizenship and migration, and reproductive justice. But they’re well known for how they engage with the public too – with experience working in communities and influencing meaningful policy change.
