Global social policy and governance: new realities, new challenges

Wed, 4 May 2022, 17:00 to 18:15

Online event

Join Professor Nicola Yeates (The Open University), Dr Chris Holden (University of York) and Shahra Razavi (International Labour Organization) as they explore  major trends and challenges facing global social governance and policy today with a panel of world-leading scholars.

This webinar marks the launch of the third edition of the leading textbook, Understanding Global Social Policy.  The event will explore the following questions:

• What are the most pressing issues for global social policy and governance today?

• What does research tell us about how they are being addressed and whether this is effective?

• What more needs to be done to meet the Sustainable Development Goals’ objective of not leaving anyone behind, anywhere?

These questions will be addressed through discussion of a range of key issues facing billions of people worldwide.

Students and teachers are especially welcome to participate in this event.
