Sector Evidence
SHAPE research through the the British Academy is a useful resource for our sector. The SHAPE Observatory is an evidence hub that monitors the health and development of social sciences, humanities and the arts across the UK and reports on how research in the SHAPE disciplines has led to significant innovation and impact across society.
The Academy of Social Sciences report also outlines eight principles about the UK’s social science sector.
