Welcome to the Birmingham School of Social Policy and Society, where our shared purpose is ‘to understand the world – but also to work collaboratively to change it for the better’. This means carrying out rigorous and relevant research, then using this as a starting point for making a practical difference in the real world through our teaching, our professional training, our policy advice, and our work with local communities, the public and the media.
“Philosophers have sought to understand the world; the point, however, is to change it.”
