Intro
UWL’s Centre of Inequality and Levelling Up (CEILUP) published analysis of the Government’s ‘Levelling Up Fund: Round 2 Briefing’.
CEILUP produces research that shapes approaches to addressing social and economic divisions in the UK.
Main body
CEILUP’s analysis of the government’s brief on allocated funding to different projects and regions across the UK showed funding is moving south and that the most deprived areas are getting less compared to round 1. CEILUP’s analytical response within hours of the publication of the government brief resulted in high-profile coverage in the Financial Times, The Mirror, iNews, and the Local Government Chronicle.
Marc Le Chevallier, CEILUP’s Research and Policy officer says:
Levelling up is hugely important on both a moral and political level and crucially builds upon UWL’s work in social mobility. As a relatively new research centre, we’ve been working hard to assess the government's success in addressing geographic inequalities, and so it’s great for our work to be recognised in these large publications."
