About IPPR
About ippr north
ippr is the only UK think tank to benefit from offices in both London and the North. ippr north explores the local, regional, national and international dimensions of a diverse range of policy areas. Our research, together with our stimulating and varied events programme, aims to deepen democratic engagement in the North.
ippr north has a broad remit. At any one time we are conducting major research projects, writing reports, taking part in public debates and holding seminars and conferences. Our aim is to be a force for change by delivering far-reaching and realistic policy solutions that we hope will produce a fairer, more inclusive and more environmentally sustainable society.
We aim to involve as wide a range of stakeholders as possible in exploring these issues. The importance of local and sub-regional issues cannot be overestimated. ippr north is working to build networks throughout the North of England in urban, rural and coalfield communities. It is crucial that this is not simply a resource for existing political elites, particularly as one of our aims is to explore how to reinvigorate civil society in its broader sense.
