Research that makes a difference
We publish social science research that tackles key societal challenges related to technology, business and people. Featured research is created by academics who are collaborating across disciplines, and with industry and government, to make a difference to policy, practice and the public.
Break the cycle – quality education
We believe in quality education for everyone, everywhere and by highlighting the issue of global literacy rates and speaking to experts in the field, we can start to find ways we can all be part of the solution.
The power of diverse voices
Read our fascinating global inclusivity report, and get access to thought-provoking articles and free research content.

The future of work is a key contemporary area of debate both in business and management research, but also in wider social, political and economic discourse.

Black lives matter (BLM) is a global activist movement that campaigns against racism, discrimination and violence towards black people.

We have brought together a number of research resources related to the coronavirus group of viruses, and epidemics more broadly, which will be freely available throughout this public health emergency.
