The UK ranks among the most unequal countries in Europe, with inequalities in wealth and health particularly pronounced – and rising – in the North East of England.
Posing the question of whether we can achieve a more equal North East, the Academy of Social Sciences recently co-hosted an event with Newcastle University and Insights North East as part of the Campaign for Social Science’s ongoing project, Election 24: ideas for change based on social science evidence.
