Understanding Society
Understanding Society will track the lives of 100,000 people in Britain every year, capturing crucial information on their health, finances, employment, education and more. It will track how people respond to policy initiatives and inform future policy - for example how many quality years people will have post retirement and what the need for state care will be. |
