On 9 February 2024, the Academy of Social Sciences, in partnership with Swansea University and the Wales Institute for Social and Economic Research and Data (WISERD) co-hosted an event featuring representatives from all three parties which hold seats in Wales to discuss their perspectives on a range of topics including the Welsh economy, climate change impacts in Wales, and international collaboration.

Chaired by Dr Matthew Wall (Swansea University), the event comprised a series of internal discussions featuring social scientists and researchers around how social science evidence can better inform policy throughout the day. These panels developed a list of questions which were then posed to Carolyn Harris MP (Welsh Labour, Swansea East), Tom Giffard MS (Welsh Conservatives, South Wales West), and Andrew Jenkins (Plaid Cymru candidate for Neath & Swansea East), at the concluding public-facing event.

In this clip, the speakers discuss their perspectives on the Welsh economy.

This event was part of Election 24: Ideas for change based on social science evidence, a Campaign for Social Science project which drew on a range of social science research to suggest evidence-based social policy directions in the run up to a UK general election in 2024.
