DaPEW Annual Report 2023/24

Over the past year, the DaPEW project team has focused on deepening our understanding of the relationship between diversity, inclusion, and productivity through rigorous research, innovative experiments, and engaging events. This year’s report encapsulates the research we believe will reshape the future of diversity and productivity in the UK.
From the progress of our research projects to media outputs and impactful events, this annual report offers a comprehensive overview of our mission, achievements, and the strides we've made toward creating a more inclusive and productive landscape.

"Discover Economics is on a mission to expand access to economics. Doing this requires evidence on the whole pipeline: who isn’t getting into economics, what the barriers to take-up are, and whether particular interventions can tackle these. Across a number of projects in DAPEW, I’ve been involved in producing evidence showing both where the problems lie, and that relatively light-touch sessions
introducing school students to economics can be enough to shift their perceptions, at least in the short term. In the medium term I’m excited to see whether these immediate effects translate into longer term changes in who studies, and ultimately works in, economics.

Over the past year, the DaPEW project has continued its dual focus on fostering diversity and enhancing productivity, which is clearly reflected in our latest outputs. Our research has provided valuable insights into building and maintaining diverse workforces, helping organizations implement actionable strategies to improve team performance. At the same time, we have conducted in-depth studies on inclusive education policies and practices, contributing to expanding opportunities for individuals from under-represented backgrounds.
 

From comprehensive research reports to impactful events, our outputs this year demonstrate our unwavering commitment to promoting UK productivity through diverse workforces and advancing inclusivity in education and career development. This integrated approach highlights our dedication to driving meaningful change on both fronts, in line with our mission to make a lasting impact.
