This theme focuses on contemporary social and political issues such as climate change, wellbeing and productivity in the workplace, social media, leadership, and political radicalisation. Our research has attracted funding from the Richard Benjamin Trust, the Political Studies Association, the Oxford University Press, and the British Psychological Society.
