School for Policy Studies

    Achieving justice and improving support and protection for victims-survivors of gender-based violence

    Gender-based violence (GBV) is recognised globally as a violation of human rights which disproportionately damages the health and wellbeing of women.

    Development and adoption of national and international physical activity guidelines

    We all know that exercise is good for us and that a lack of it contributes towards a range of mental and physical health problems. Globally, one in four adults and three in four adolescents do not currently meet the global recommendations for physical activity set by the World Health Organisation (WHO).

    Innovative physical activity interventions for at risk and disadvantaged children and adults

    Globally physical activity in adults and children is very low despite compelling evidence regarding the increased risk of disease and death from insufficient physical activity (PA).

    Understanding and promoting the educational progress of children in care

    Research led by Bristol and Oxford Universities has concluded that, contrary to popular belief, children in care make better educational progress than children living at home receiving social work support (‘children in need’): the care system, therefore, operates as an educational protective factor
