The purpose of our team is to get expert insight into policy. We’ve been reviewing our projects recently and wanted to share some of the highlights.

Since January 2019: 

More than 1,200 academics and other experts have contributed to our policy work

We’ve delivered more than 70 policy projects for customers across government 

Expert contributors have come from more than 600 organisations

13% of expert contributions have been made by academics from our partner universities -  Brunel, Essex, Lancaster and York - with the remaining 87% coming from other organisations in the UK and overseas

Academics from UCL (5.1%), Lancaster (4.6%), Oxford (4.2%) and Cambridge (3.8%) account for the greatest number of contributions

Of non-UK institutions contributing to our work, Harvard is the most frequent

Thanks again to all the experts who’ve contributed to our work over the past few years. The great feedback we receive from colleagues and the growing number of customers we have across government show how valuable your input is.
