Some of the Safety Nets team join Professor Mairi Spowage, University of Strathclyde for a webinar as part of the Campaign for Social Sciences' 2026 series on devolution. This session looks specifically at how the four different governments of the UK have dealt with the policy challenges of child poverty. Our panel will shine a lens on different approaches to social security for parents with dependent children, asking what the four nations can learn from each other after 27 years of different (and sometimes radically divergent) approaches to issues around child poverty.
