Established for over 125 years, and part of the University of London, Goldsmiths spans the arts, humanities, social sciences, cultural studies, computing, business management, and law. It is also a provider of professional training in teaching, social work, counselling and therapy practice. Knowledge creation and exchange – from curiosity-driven research to work that applies its research to real-world issues – underpins its intellectual, creative and social culture.
Goldsmiths has a long history of creative, radical and intellectually rigorous research. As an arts, humanities and social sciences university we aim to address the challenges that face society and lay the foundations for societal, economic and cultural benefit.
Complementing our work with Private, Public and Third Sector businesses and our Public & Community Engagement, we engage with Policymakers to ensure our expertise helps to shape and inform public policy. We work with local policymakers in Lewisham and across Greater London, as well as national and international policymakers from Westminster to Brussels and Washington to Beijing.
Our policy expertise spans Cultural, Education, Health & Social Care, Law & Human Rights, Urban and Environmental policy.
