Research Insights: Places on a mission: pioneering local statecraft in an era of uncertainty

Register now

At this event we will share practical learning and insight from our Places on a mission: pioneering local statecraft in an era of uncertainty report, toolkit and case studies.  

A growing movement of councils and strategic authorities are demonstrating the potential of missions. Local government and partners are organising around shared ambitious goals and developing mission enabling ways of working to help tackle the big challenges facing local areas and regions.

These missions are not a silver bullet, but they’re starting to become a powerful organising principle, driving local and regional institutional and place-based public service reform in efforts to tackle the most entrenched problems of today and rebuild trust in the way we govern.  

This work is hard and it is messy. It is also essential.  

 Join us at this lunch and learn session with local government colleagues to:

• Connect with others who are interested in the potential of missions and mission-led ways of working
• Discuss key findings from our research
