ILD | The Institute for Lifecourse Development

The Institute for Lifecourse Development is a key anchor resource where professionals from many different fields work closely together with researchers and stakeholders from public, charitable and voluntary organisations. Together we are developing effective and economically sustainable lifecourse solutions and tackle some of the most significant challenges society faces.

Working with our extensive network of external healthcare and education partners, as well as business and public sector organisations, we focus on using interdisciplinary expertise to promote the lifelong wellbeing of vulnerable and marginalised people in the community.

Our vision

Our vision is to reduce inequalities and to promote lifelong good health and wellbeing, inclusive quality education, productive employment and decent work, and peace and justice for all. To demonstrate our commitment to sustainable development, we will champion initiatives to meaningfully engage with vulnerable populations and communities across the lifecourse and take an interdisciplinary and innovation-based approach with a strong focus on open science, transparency, accountability and value for money. We will optimise our inclusive global partnerships, to drive collective priority setting ensuring that evidence generated from our translational research has local and global relevance, improves outcomes and leads to advances in real-world practice.
