Networks
We're creating alliances and networks among local practitioners and national policymakers. We bring together allies and like-minded organisations to encourage debate and learning from leaders and innovators.

Policy
We're building support for the Social Guarantee through public and political discussion, with a strong focus on manifestos for the next election. We're reaching out to policy-makers and opinion formers, producing blogs and media coverage, organising and contributing to events, and building our social media presence.

Knowledge
We're building knowledge about all aspects of the Social Guarantee, including examples of good practice and data on costs and benefits. We collate and showcase relevant publications and generate new research and analysis.

ABOUT
The Social Guarantee makes sure everyone's basic needs are met. It shows how more and better public services can deliver life's essentials within environmental limits. Enough for all, so that everyone can have enough, now and for future generations.
What is the Social Guarantee?

EXAMPLES
The Social Guarantee is not just delivering services.
The Social Guarantee is not just delivering services. For each of life’s essentials, there has to be a different package of measures. As well as service provision by governments or NGOs, ingredients include state regulation and investment, local initiatives and individual action. Details vary widely but in each case the package complies with the same set of principles.
Examples from different countries suggest what the Social Guarantee could look like in practice.

The Social Guarantee: How would we pay for it?
In the latest addition to the Social Guarantee Discussion Papers, Research Fellow Isaac Stanley looks first at claims that the UK is too broke to pay for more and better public services, and summarises briefly how costs have been estimated so far. He then sets out possible sources of funding, as identified by a range of experts.
