The future is everyone’s to shape

Together we’re responsible for creating the future we want – that’s why The Open University is calling for research ideas from anyone, anywhere. Our Open Societal Challenges programme was created to enable the widest collaboration of people to come together to address some of societies greatest issues – tackling inequality, driving sustainability and removing barriers to people living well.

Solving these requires our collective effort.

All our research, wherever it comes from, will help create a future full of opportunities.
