Celebrating the social sciences |
See social science through the eyes of a social scientist and others.
The impact of the social sciences and social science #research are shown in eight case studies - ranging from military operations in Afghanistan and changing prison practices to reducing firesetting of grasslands and helping young people become more resilient.
The case studies include:
Streamlining military operations, Theo Farrel
Changing teaching with touch technology, Margaret Cox
The ABC guide to corporate social responsibility, Heledd Jenkins
Boosting resilience for young people, Angie Hart
Getting creative with Ketso, Joanne Tippett
The sheep that stopped grassland fires, Sue Peattie
How our prisons perform, Alison Liebling
Modern education in a traditional setting, Masooda Bano
