Publications
The Young Foundation produces a wide range of publications drawing on our work and research. These include the influential study into the changing landscape of Britain’s needs - Sinking and Swimming, a series of reports documenting the field and methods of social innovation (The Open Book of Social Innovation, Danger and Opportunity and Social Venturing) and Investing in Social Growth - setting out the Young Foundation’s ten point programme to make the Big Society real. Please find below further details of these and many further publications on civil society, family life, social mobility and urban dynamics.
