CFJ to lead the set-up of the new Nuffield Family Justice Observatory

The Nuffield Foundation has appointed a team led by Professor Karen Broadhurst at Lancaster University to deliver the development phase of the Nuffield Family Justice Observatory. The Observatory will support the best possible decisions for children by improving the use of data and research evidence in the family justice system in England and Wales.

Over the 12-month development period, Professor Broadhurst’s team will build the infrastructure of the Observatory and advise the Nuffield Foundation on the best operating model for the Observatory’s 4-5 year delivery phase, to begin in spring 2019. The Foundation has identified a fund of up to £5 million initially that will be available for the development and pilot delivery phases of the Observatory.
