To inform, not persuade

To make good decisions, we all need good evidence which is clearly communicated. At the Winton Centre we have been working with institutions and individuals to improve the way that important evidence is presented to all of us.

The Winton Centre has been a fixed-term project and is now winding up, ready to close at the end of December 2022. We have always worked closely with other institutions to ensure that all our projects have a long-term future.

You can find resources and more about our work using the menu bar on this page, but we have also produced a series of leaflets outlining many of our major projects which you can download here:
