If you or other members of your team have expertise related to behaviour change and/or you would like
to be added to the Centres mailing list, please contact us.
Behaviour change is increasingly recognised as
central to human wellbeing, social cohesion and
sustainability. Changing behaviour is a
challenging and complex process, requiring
theories, methods and evidence from many
academic disciplines. UCL has considerable
expertise in behaviour change, which until now
has been fragmented and scattered across
departments, divisions and faculties.
Funded by the Provosts Strategic
Development Fund together with support from
UCLsGrand Challenge for Health and
Wellbeing and five Faculty Deans, the Centre
aims to increase the quality and quantity of
academic activity in behaviour change at UCL,
increase its public profile and its engagement
with policy-makers and support UCL in
becoming a leading and world renowned
centre for expertise in behaviour change.
