UK 2040 OPTIONS

Children born today will reach adulthood around 2040. What will life in the UK be like for them, according to current trajectories? What are the policy options we have now that can influence or change that trajectory for the better?

Ideas to propel us to a better 2040

We’ve published four reports that set out ideas across areas critical to the country’s future – economic growth, health, education and the transition to net zero. They bring to the fore some of the interesting, innovative and potentially impactful policy ideas that experts have suggested to us over the past year.

About the project

To address the defining issues facing the country, UK 2040 Options brings a range of experts together to assess the policy landscape, explore fertile areas for change and to test and interrogate ideas. Together, we support policymakers with fresh insights and tools to inform choices that they now face.
