The overarching objective of both research and interventions is to contribute to strengthening the social and financial sustainability of the welfare state through the creation of new, independent knowledge about the challenges faced by society and through the development of solutions to these challenges.
The research is conducted both by the ROCKWOOL Foundation’s Research Unit and specialised external researchers. The practical interventions are managed by the ROCKWOOL Foundation’s Interventions Unit.
