Innovation, Public Policy and Public Value

New organizational skills and ways of thinking are needed to address the major issues of the twenty-first century, such as reducing inequality, providing better and inclusive public services, and moving toward a greener, more sustainable economy.

The Innovation, Public Policy and Public Value program from UCL teaches the dynamic skills required for purpose-driven organisations in public, private, and civil sectors.

Employability

The world is facing pressing challenges—social, technological, and economic. What is the future of the welfare state? How can digital platforms be governed in democratic and inclusive ways? What new forms of investment, regulation, and collaboration can best tackle global warming?

To find the answers to these questions, public and private organizations must work together in new ways and develop a stronger sense of purpose. In this context, governments require different tools and capabilities to co-create and co-shape markets, not just fix market failures.
