Models and Partnerships for Social Prosperity

Innovative models for service delivery and new partnerships between communities, businesses and the public sector can radically change social and economic outcomes. From creative solutions for localised social care and education delivery to the benefits of community-owned energy and community-run housing associations, this workstream cuts across all sectors of policy to re-imagine the terms of these outcomes and the resulting benefits.


In 2012 this workstream will encompass our research into new models for private, public and third sector partnerships and delivery of public services, including innovative approaches to welfare, health and social care, education, social housing, employment and skills. Drawing on a number of recent legislative developments - most notably, the Localism Act, the Open Public Services White Paper and the Public Services (Social value) Bill - the importance of social value in commissioning and service delivery is fundamental to our work.
