A collaboration between The University of Manchester, Edinburgh University, Essex University, Lancaster University and Leeds University with Fellowships based at Cardiff University, Queens University Belfast and The University of Salford
SPRG aims to generate generic and domain-specific insights for changing practices that are relevant to various different policy, business and community actors. These will be integrated to develop comparative insights capable of informing and inspiring wide-ranging public and policy debates. The dissemination of this will be achieved through a wide range of events and activities.
