Influencing the Corridors of Power (ICOP) is an innovative front-line project which addresses the democratic deficit between UK universities and UK politics.
ICOP does this by being both a platform for academics and for students to write one-page briefings on current and upcoming parliamentary debates and legislation and a conduit for their delivery to all MPs and lords. Furthermore, ICOP seeks to engage with MPs and lords so that our briefings' evidence-based views and recommendations do not just inform but actually create the policy changes our university population wants to see.
