Ideas always have and always will change the world, whether this be via incremental shifts in understanding or behaviour, or from the introduction of revolutionary new ways of knowing and being. Being Human presents the concept of an ideas-informed society, in which new thinking and innovation drive decision-making and citizens are encouraged to engage in and actively participate in this process.
Chris Brown and Ruth Luzmore present a practice-orientated manifesto that details what is needed to actualise an ideas-informed world, and the role of education systems and policymakers in facilitating an increasingly happier, healthier, smarter and more fulfilled society.
Chris Brown is Professor in Education and Head of School at Southampton Education School, University of Southampton, and Distinguished Visiting Professor at the University of Tübingen, Germany.
Ruth Luzmore is an experienced educator working and leading schools in the UK, most recently as a Primary Headteacher in London. She is Research Fellow at Southampton Education School, University of Southampton.
