Professorial Lecture
This lecture will explore the agenda facing public care and consider how universities can work with the sector to secure well-run, evidence-informed services. Keith will argue that public care is not served by a patchwork of research, consultancy and training from diverse suppliers in competing sectors leading to inconsistent service design, delivery, management and poorer outcomes. He considers how universities can lead through building integrated and constructive relationships with public care agencies resulting in better informed, more effective care in our society.
Professor Keith Moultrie is the Director of the Institute of Public Care at Oxford Brookes University. He has 18 years’ experience of leading applied research, development and implementation projects in public care, and ten years of public care management and practice, including direct work with adults and children. IPC is a leading national knowledge transfer organisation. Based in Bath and Oxford, its purpose is to help public care to be better run and more evidence-based, and it specialises in commissioning, performance management, practice quality and service transformation.
