This paper sets out what we already know about public attitudes towards road pricing schemes placed in the context of attitudes towards public and private transport. We go on to present our new survey data and show how it indicates that clear communication of the benefits of road pricing and the revenues it raises can go a long way to winning support for a policy which is initially greeted with much disapproval.
This latest research by Ipsos is key in helping all concerned to understand and unpick these choices. Where are we now? How did we get here? And what are the possible solutions?
Ipsos was commissioned by The Camelot Foundation to conduct research among young people, aged 16 to 21 years, on the meaning of Britishness as a national identity.
The study has been commissioned to bring to the debate young people's perspectives on what a national identity means to them, the relevance it has to their lives and its currency in present day culture.
This report contains the key findings of a research study carried out by Ipsos's Participation Unit to explore theories of influence and consequently to identify a more
meaningful Socio-political Influencer group. It brings together our wealth of data on political activism and places it in the broader context of literature exploring the role of influence in the private and public sectors, in order to understand how a small group of people may have a vital impact on public policy.
This report is the first to map how anti-social behaviour is perceived at a local level across all parts of England and how these views are changing over time. Tailored analysis enables us to identify where perceptions are not as we might expect; in some areas perceptions of anti-social behaviour are better than we would predict, in others they are worse.
Welcome to Frontiers of Performance in Local Government IV: Place Shapers or Shaped by Place? This report is the latest in the Ipsos series which seeks to provide the most recent and meaningful analysis of public perceptions around the performance of local authorities, based on the
Autumn 2006 BVPI General User Satisfaction Survey, undertaken by all English local authorities.
The Commission on Integration and Cohesion (CIC) was established in August 2006 as a fixed-term body (reporting in June 2007), charged with deepening an understanding of community cohesion issues and relevant policy approaches, and developing practical approaches to support community cohesion in local areas.
This research study was commissioned to contribute to the ongoing work of Communities and Local Government and the Commission. It seeks to help understand `what works' in terms of cohesion policy and initiatives by investigating policy and practice in six case-study areas.
