Events
Domestic wood burners - Roundtable
Seeking Funding
In the last decade, air pollution from wood burning has doubled across the UK – becoming one of the main sources of air pollution in London and a significant risk to public health.
We want to host a private roundtable event of experts, policymakers and industry to establish what the right policy levers are to reduce pollution and emissions.
Your support can make this event possible and help shape London’s policy response.
Spring Conference 2024 - In Person
Seeking Funding
Our Spring Conference is half-day deep dive into the challenges we face in the capital. The theme for this year’s conference will be announced shortly.
This year’s event will take place in March – just ahead of the 2024 Mayoral election. It will act as a unique opportunity to pinpoint policy solutions to take to the future Mayor of London.
Your sponsorship of this event will help us keep it free for all attendees and connect you with London’s key stakeholders, policymakers, businesses, and communities, while positioning your organisation at the heart of London’s policymaking.
Previous topics have included: London’s Next Economy, East by South East and the Countdown to Net Zero.

Research
Rebooting London’s economy
Seeking Funding
The UK relies on London as the engine of the national economy – but over the last decade, productivity has flatlined. London’s economy needs a reboot.
We want to explore how London can attract investment in tomorrow’s key industries and the development of Londoners’ skills.
Your support will allow this research to take place with findings ready to influence policy after upcoming national and London elections.
Decarbonising London’s Homes
Part Funded
Reducing carbon emissions from London’s housing is vital to helping us meet our net zero goals.
We want to learn from other cities’ experiences of retrofitting homes and assess London’s unique challenges so we can be a world leader in green housing.
Supporting this research can help create actionable ideas for London’s leaders and the industry.
Safer parks for women and girls
Seeking Funding
82% of women and girls say they don’t feel safe in London’s parks after dark. London is known for its incredible parks. They should be accessible to all.
We want to build the evidence base for ways to make London’s parks and open spaces safer and protect women and girls from harassment.
Your support will allow us to work with those affected and organisations that manage parks to find solutions.
Homes fit for Londoners: fresh thinking on London’s housing crisis
Part Funded
London’s housing crisis is threatening the future success of the city. The city is at risk of not being able to house the key workers we rely on.
Our uniquely London-first perspective can help provide new ideas for supporting housing that works for all Londoners.
Supporting our ongoing work in this area can help to shape the future of development in London following the upcoming election.
London’s street, food and farmers’ markets
Seeking Funding
The city’s markets are popular with tourists and Londoners, helping drive local growth and support independent businesses. But negative impacts like crowds and waste can cause tensions.
We want to explore how to maximise the potential of London’s markets for the city’s economy and people’s quality of life.
With your support, we can help find new solutions for a growing and culturally important sector.
Art for all: fostering participation in the arts among Londoners
Seeking Funding
London, a city boasting world-leading art and cultural institutions, holds a treasure trove of artistic experiences. However, research shows that many Londoners seem to miss out on artistic experiences ranging from visiting concerts, galleries or museums.
Centre for London is looking to conduct a research project to find how the city can empower all Londoners to embrace the arts.
We aim to develop concrete, evidence-based policy solutions to guide policymakers and art sector leaders in making the city's cultural offerings accessible and interactive for everyone.
Travel for work in London: new data and policy solutions
Seeking Funding
Hundreds of thousands of people in London travel for work every day, as part of their jobs providing key services including urgent healthcare, taxi services and deliveries. While commutes to and from work get a lot of attention, the needs of people who travel during their jobs are discussed less often.
Our project seeks to find ways to balance the need to manage traffic and pollution with the need for Londoners to travel as part of their job efficiently, affordably and comfortable.
Our vision is to map the way forward for a more sustainable and harmonious work-travel ecosystem for the benefit of all Londoners.
