Projects

Decent informal work development: This UKRI QR-funded project aims to investigate sustainable decent work development and policy implementation in a post-covid-19 pandemic world of informal work in Ghana. It is being conducted, in collaboration with a major trade union, the Traders Advocacy Group Ghana (TAGG). It seeks to generate insights and knowledge to develop more effective strategies to support the development of sustainable decent work in the Ghanaian informal economy post Covid-19 pandemic to improve the socio-economic wellbeing of our gallant informal workers.

Supporting the Skills Economy and Alternative Spaces: Skills and sustainable labour markets are intrinsic to structural transformation and sustainable economic growth. Whilst recent literature has been directed at employability, labour productivity and place-based models, as well as the aftermath of shocks such as the Global Financial Crisis and Covid-19, here, this PhD focuses on the unique problem created through the nexus of economic decline, austerity, and green transformations, and how we might overcome these complex problems to support sustainable economic growth through the skills economy. The rise of the skills economy is a response to the global skills shortage, where 87% of companies worldwide anticipate major skills gaps within the next 5 years. Of additional concern is how people from vulnerable, marginal or ‘excluded’ groups such as migrants and minorities are less able to participate in, and benefit from, entrepreneurship, fair employment and benefits of inclusive economic growth. This results in part from the spread of the informal economy and businesses operating on the margins of legality, for example in their compliance with employment, safety and other law and regulation.
