Our Society Today

Our Society Today contains news articles, interviews with directors of major ESRC investments, and focus pieces that identify science in society. The section aims to present a balanced view over some of the areas in which social science really does make a difference.

News Articles:	Reinventing health security Should Britain be caught napping?
Voices:	Andrew Pollard - Director of ESRC's Teaching and Learning Programme (TLRP)
Spotlights:	The 2007 Budget: Incentives for a greener future? No Smoking - what seems to be the problem?

PROVIDING A FOCUS FOR SOCIETY

The ESRC head office will be closed during the Easter period, from 4pm on Wednesday 4 April until early Tuesday 10 April. During this time the main electricity supply to our offices needs essential maintenance, so computer systems have no power, and there will be no access to ESRC systems including emails. Functionality on this website will also be affected. To reduce this work's impact, it has been scheduled for the Easter weekend. Apologies for any inconvenience this causes.

The Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) is the UK's leading research funding and training agency addressing economic and social concerns. We aim to provide high quality research on issues of importance to business, the public sector and government.
