What we do
Good transitions
Technology is rapidly changing our labour market, bringing new opportunities – and new risks – to people’s ability to access good work. At IFOW, we are leading research on ‘good’ transitions: how to help people navigate these changes well.
The idea of good transitions goes beyond building people’s skills. It is also about building capabilities – the resilience and resources we need to be able to make best use of our skills in pursuing the future of work that we desire. Understanding how we can find and design better jobs for everyone is important because we know that good work promotes social wellbeing, democratic engagement and hope for a fairer future.
