The Equality Trust

The Equality Trust was established in 2009 by Bill Kerry, Richard G. Wilkinson, and Kate Pickett following the publication of Wilkinson and Pickett's book, "The Spirit Level: Why More Equal Societies Almost Always Do Better." The organization aims to reduce economic and social inequality through campaigning and advocacy. They provide evidence-based research to demonstrate the negative impacts of inequality on health, crime, education, and social mobility. The Trust advocates for policy changes to address these issues and promotes public understanding of the benefits of a more equal society. Their work primarily focuses on the UK but also has global implications, addressing wealth and income disparities through various campaigns and educational initiatives.
