WiSE Centre for Economic Justice
We conduct research into economic equality, new economics, public policy, gender, social history, poverty, migration and human rights issues under the broad theme of economic justice.
Our academics come from a variety of disciplines and bring a critical discourse to our research and educational activities, as well as our civic and policy engagement.
Our aim is to foster creative interdisciplinary initiatives which exploit new knowledge to inform public policy and create a just society in Scotland and internationally.
