Launched in September 2023, our evolved programme introduces five new themes: Mental Health & Wellbeing, Climate Crisis, Data-Empowered Societies, Inequalities, and Intercultural Communication. These themes aim to maximise UCL's impact on the most pressing issues facing society today to help make real-world impacts.

Our world-leading academics, curious students, and outstanding staff position UCL perfectly to deliver a challenge-based programme.

Over the next five years, we are committed to:

  • Funding challenge-led, interdisciplinary research
  • Supporting community-building, education, and knowledge mobilisation
  • Catalysing innovation
