UCL study calls for ‘21st century approach to prosperity’
A new study has criticised the Government’s top down levelling-up agenda and calls for what it calls a ‘21st century approach to prosperity’.
The UCL Institute for Global Prosperity (IGP) is calling on the Government to adopt a ‘brave and bold’ approach to shared prosperity by placing livelihood security and people-led policymaking at the heart of COVID-19 recovery planning and the levelling-up agenda.
In a new report, ‘Rebuilding Prosperity: A Report for Change’, IGP calls for the implementation of local Universal Basic Services experiments in digital, food and transport, to enable access to economic and civic participation for all through a shared infrastructure of public services.
