Gender & society
Gender-based violence, technology-facilitated abuse, representation, unequal access and other social harms.
Governance & public systems
Public systems, procurement, transparency, accountability, service delivery and the evidence needed to scrutinise institutions.
Climate & environment
Climate risk, environmental data, public decisions and access to information about environmental change.
AI & technology
How emerging technologies affect information, institutions, rights, public services and everyday life.
How we research
Research should show how a finding was reached
We separate the question, the data, the method and the limitations so readers can see what the evidence supports–and what it does not.
