Professor Yeandle has led the WUN research collaboration “Sustainable Care: Connecting People and Systems” that investigated how 21st century systems of care can be made sustainable and how citizens can be empowered to have more control over how care resources are accessed and care costs distributed.
Professor Yeandle said: “I’m honoured to be recognised for the impact of my research in the UK and around the world. Care is a genuine ‘grand challenge’ for governments, policymakers, employers and communities everywhere. Good care improves lives, but care deficits damage individuals, families, careers and economies.
I’m proud to be leading a new, internationally connected team to help governments tackle this crucial issue by focusing on inequalities in care, and how these can be overcome.”
