CReAM aims at informing the public debate on labour economics and migration in the UK and in Europe by providing new insight, helping to steer the current policy debate in a direction that is based on carefully researched evidence without partisan bias. CReAM contributes to the development of new theories and methodological advances in data analysis, ensuring the ability to contribute and inform on a wide range of issues of policy concern, and establishing a reputation for analysis that is accepted as open, transparent and reliable. Research conducted within the Centre is both theoretical and empirical. CReAM’s research is distributed to international lists focused on Labour Economics. CReAM contributes significantly to the public and policy debate on migration and labour economics in the UK and beyond.
