Public Service Innovation
This theme considers public service transformation and whole-system collaboration that delivers better outcomes for citizens. Our research adopts an insight-driven approach to evaluate what works for practitioners.
Relational welfare
We undertake research which tackles the most pressing social, economic and environmental challenges facing the welfare of cities.
In 2018 the Heseltine Institute was commissioned to undertake an evaluation of the Households into Work innovation pilot, a significant labour activation programme for the Liverpool City Region. Developed as an alternative approach to supporting people into work, Households into Work is focused on people living in households where more than one adult is unemployed and in receipt of benefit, rather than more traditional employment programmes that target individuals for support.
