Ian Wilson BA, MSc
CRESR Deputy Director and Professor of Policy Ï㽶ÊÓƵ and Evaluation
Summary
Ian Wilson is the Deputy Director of CRESR and a Professor of Policy Ï㽶ÊÓƵ and Evaluation. He has nearly 20 years’ of experience in undertaking applied policy research and evaluation. Ian has been awarded over £15 million of research and evaluation income as a principal or co- investigator. He has worked with a range of commissioning bodies, including the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities and Local Government, Department for Work and Pensions, Department for Education, Welsh Government, Joseph Rowntree Foundation, Power to Change, Energy Systems Catapult, the British Red Cross, Save the Children, the Northern Housing Consortium, Flagship Housing Group and Wakefield and District Housing. This work has supported over 100 published research outputs. Currently he is deputy lead for CRESR’s involvement in a £10 million call off agreement with DLUHCs Housing and Planning Division.
About
Ian’s research interests focus on the following three issues:
- How do public and social policy interventions affect people and communities, especially those in most need?
- How do we measure and value the impact of public and social policy interventions on people and communities?
- How do policies interact with place and person specific factors to affect the level and nature of outcomes for people and communities?
Ian has considerable expertise and experience in economic evaluation and econometric/statistical analysis. This includes the application of Cost Benefit Analysis (including the economic valuation of impacts), economic impact analysis, analysis of financial accounts, survey research and the use of advanced statistical methods in the analysis of cross-sectional, multi-level and longitudinal datasets. Much of his work has involved devising innovative methods and solutions for these methods. For example: producing an evaluation measure of a Young Person's work readiness; creating a costing model to monetise the effects of complex need projects on the usage of statutory services; and pioneering work to monetise the value of 'perceptional' outcomes from regeneration programmes, which would become the Treasury’s WELLBY approach.
