Poverty, precarity, saving and debt

CHASM’s major contribution to research on poverty and debt was showcased across the nation in the University of Birmingham ‘Heroes’ campaign in 2019, while our work on savings has led to better access to savings opportunities for those on lower incomes.

This theme continues, and extends, our vital work in this area to include research on the fragmentation of poverty, labour market insecurity and precarious work, as well as a greater focus on poverty and precarity among migrant and marginalised groups.
