Our Future of Government programme has been running since 2019, using public polling and original research to tackle topics such as public perceptions of fairness in the UK, regional inequality, social mobility, as well as ethnic diversity and inclusion, gender inequality, and declining trust in public sector organisations.
This insight, coupled with our knowledge and expertise, helps us design the innovative, human-led tech-powered solutions that the public sector needs to deliver sustained outcomes and build public trust. With the right structure, culture and tech in place, the public sector can do more than transform. It can be transformative.
Our latest research looks at how reimagining the architecture of government in the UK could drive better delivery of public services. We are engaging with representatives from different parts of government and the public sector, as well as wider policy and think tank organisations, to hear their experiences and views on the key factors that should be considered as they continue to transform for the future.
These factors include: improving the user and citizen engagement experience; establishing a new deal between the central and local agencies of government; fostering a cross-organisational collaboration to tackle critical changes; and addressing capacity and capability.
Be transformative. Rethink the architecture of government.
