The Institute was launched in April 2018 and is based in the Department of Politics and International Studies (POLIS). The Institute conducts academic and policy research around some of the major policy challenges of the 21st century on the broad themes of place, progress and productivity, and aims to expand the portfolio of public policy education and training offered at the University. The Centre for the Future of Democracy is also housed at the Institute. For current information, see bennettinstitute.cam.ac.uk.
