Social and Public Policy Research Group (SPPRG)

The Social and Public Policy Research Group is a multidisciplinary, applied research group that focuses on conducting and applying social science research to the real world, aiming to gain a better understanding of it and the individuals, relationships, communities, and systems within it.

The research group is impact-driven and aims to help us understand how research and theory can inform evidence-based policy and practice.
