How can frontline civil society organisations help alleviate poverty in the city as part of a wider mission to create ‘a city of good work for all’? This was the focus for the first meeting of the London Good Work Commission.
The London Good Work Commission is the first major attempt in the capital to explore how we create a city of good work for all by 2030.
Established by London Plus, the hub body for the capital’s 120,000 voluntary organisations, the Commission will pull together a compelling amount of research and insight into the state of poverty and bad work in the city.
