understand and expand social change
The Centre for Applied Social Research (CeASR) draws together researchers at Leeds Beckett University who seek to understand and enable social change. It provides a space to collaborate, generate knowledge, and communicate new work.
We see social research as essential for understanding the contemporary world and as playing a crucial role in guiding social change for the better. By working across disciplines and with diverse members of the local and global community we strive to enable conversations, collaborations, understanding and positive development. Experts in the fields of Politics and International Relations, Sociology, and Criminology contribute to our ongoing investigations and conversations. You can find out more about their work at our regular research events, via our social media channels, and in our newsletter with details for all of these below.
