Our Labs
Our work is organised into three labs, spanning the future of work, alternative conceptions of the public sphere and R&D for progressive forces.
Each lab incubates a variety of projects and programs which can be explored below:
Public Futures
The Public Futures Lab explores bold, progressive visions for the future of public life, services, and infrastructure. From universal basic services to democratic ownership, the lab develops forward-thinking policies and narratives that reimagine the role of the state, community, and collective provision in a just society.
Work Futures
The Work Futures Lab examines the changing world of work and labour. Through cutting-edge research on automation, working time, and employment conditions, the lab develops policies and tools that promote dignity, equity, and sustainability in the workplace—now and in the future.
Insights and Solutions
The Insights and Solutions Lab provides data-driven analysis and bespoke policy design for organisations, governments, and civic actors. Grounded in rigorous research and real-world engagement, the lab delivers actionable strategies to tackle pressing economic, social, and environmental challenges — while developing tools and approaches that support democratic participation, institutional transparency, and accountable decision-making.
