Research

Our research programmes are designed to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and experience between academia, politics and public policy. Our method relies on a distinctly collaborative and cross-national approach: we organise workshops, seminars and conferences which bring together high-level academics, policy-makers and politicians from across the world to exchange new ideas and international best practice.

The Politics of Climate Change

This non-partisan research initiative seeks to build a new, innovative and radical political consensus on how to deliver policy solutions for a low-carbon economy.

The Renewal of Social Democracy

This research project is dedicated to the renewal of social democracy and seeks to address the key political and policy dilemmas the centre-left is currently facing.

The Future of the EU

The aim of the project is to determine how the European Union will need to adapt both internally and externally in order to meet the major challenges presented by a rapidly globalising world.

Globalisation and Social Justice

The aim of this research initiative is to reassess the central principles of social justice and the radical reforms needed to bring it about in an age of rapid globalisation.

Immigration and Integration

This research initiative contributes to the development of a progressive migration and integration agenda that meets economic and demographic challenges and builds public confidence.

International Politics and Global Governance

Our programme of investigation and debate on global politics is called Foresight and focuses on the challenge of forging common futures in a multi-polar world.
