We know how to build net zero homes. So, why aren’t we? - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Why devolved powers are only half the story in Wales’ journey to net zero homes When I first came across Solcer House, an experimental home designed and built by Cardiff University back in 2015, I was struck not by its futuristic gadgets or green credentials, but by how ordinary it looked. Yet, behind its modest design, this home in Pyle, Bridgend, was something radical: it generated more energy than it used and cost no more to build than a stan…Read Article

System transformation or cliff-edge? The role of time-limited funds in achieving public policy goals - Institute of Welsh Affairs

The nature and level of funding for public services is always a source of debate and discussion. This is particularly the case in times when escalating needs and population changes pose significant challenges for policy makers and those charged with the commissioning and delivery of local services. More than half of the Welsh Government’s total budget is spent on health and social care services, and represents proportionally more so for local au…Read Article

Lecturers From Cardiff University Predict Its Dystopian Future

Cardiff University Vice Chancellor Wendy Larner Anonymous What will a “leaner and more efficient” Cardiff University look like? Cardiff University’s Executive Board has set out their vision for ‘digital transformation’ in Wales in 2035, where ‘digital technology is all-pervasive, with quantum computing and powerful AIs; gene-editing drives health improvement; and synthetic biology drives economic growth’.

LONG READ: Devolution and Constitutional Reform: towards a stable and efficient democratic parliamentary structure - Institute of Welsh Affairs

“It is important that we know where we come from, because if you do not know where you come from, then you don’t know where you are, and if you don’t know where you are, you don’t know where you’re going. And if you don’t know where you’re going, you’re probably going wrong.” Terry Pratchett The need for constitutional reform has long been part of Labour’s DNA. Labour has traditionally been the party driving and developing devolution. It is a p…Wales, United Kingdom · Wales Read Article

IWA Analysis: Setting Wales’ economic course - the Spending Review from a Welsh lens - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Yesterday’s UK Government spending review is a vital milestone which sees the government setting out its spending priorities for the next three to five years. With a considerably under-pressure budget and an uncertain economic context, the government has indicated which areas will receive more cash and which will receive real-term cuts. Difficult trade-offs on priorities have been made in what is a tight fiscal position. It’s important to state …Wales, United Kingdom · Wales Read Article

From Erasmus to Taith and back again: why a return to Erasmus+ can’t mean the end of Taith - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Kirsty Williams, former Welsh Education Minister, Taith Board member, and Chair of the Taith Advisory Board, tells us about Taith, what the programme has achieved, and why it has done so much more for Wales than simply act as a stopgap for Erasmus+. Despite the long build-up and countless media articles second guessing what might be discussed, the deal that came out of the recent EU-UK summit took a lot of people by surprise. As expected, there …Wales, United Kingdom · Wales Read Article

We need to talk about homes - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Wales’ housing crisis Published in April 2025, Shelter Cymru’s report Waiting for a home highlighted the current crisis in the Welsh housing sector. There are more than 94,000 households in Wales waiting for a social home. This equates to 1 in every 14 households in the country, or 170,000 people.

The politicisation of NHS Wales: how ideology risks compromising patient care - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Healthcare systems should be guided by one unshakable principle: delivering the best possible outcomes for patients. Yet in the case of NHS Wales, recent decisions surrounding the development of national data infrastructure suggest that ideological positioning is being prioritised over operational effectiveness – to the detriment of the public it is meant to serve. A tale of two systems NHS Wales has chosen to build its own National Data Resourc…NHS · Wales Read Article

Child strip searches in Wales: the urgent need for transparency, justice, and devolution - Institute of Welsh Affairs

A deeply concerning issue is currently impacting some of the most vulnerable members in Welsh society: the practice of child strip search. While the TV shows Adolescence and Eastenders have brought the topic of child strip search back into the mainstream, a scattered landscape is emerging around it in England and Wales. Wales is a nation that prides itself on its open-mindedness and on valuing fairness. There are initiatives in Wales that don’t …Cardiff, United Kingdom · Cardiff Read Article

A trainful of lives - Institute of Welsh Affairs

Picture this: you’re standing on a busy platform at Cardiff Central, nervously eyeing the arrival board. The train to north Wales finally pulls in – but it’s only two carriages long and almost every seat is already taken. You know that feeling: the sinking feeling of realising you’ll be standing all the way to Wrexham. Now imagine that entire train that has just pulled in — almost every person in both carriages — didn’t end up in a hospital or w…Cardiff, United Kingdom · Cardiff Read Article
