Helping Labour tackle emerging risks for a brighter future

We create evidence-based guidance aimed at helping decision-makers take immediate action with a long-term impact. We are Labour for the Long Term.

About

Taking the long-term view

Our aim is to help Labour develop policies that ensure a fairer and safer future. We are facing a number of dangerous risks, from the possibility of another deadly pandemic to runaway climate change. 

The decisions we make now will affect generations to come, and there is a great opportunity for decisive action.

Network

Stay connected

Our network is looking to support Labour by highlighting areas where the party’s policies can naturally include a more long-term focus.
