In Episode 1 of Series 3, we’re talking about how uniquely placed the ONS Longitudinal Study is to research questions of internal migration and telling you more about this unique data resource and its potential to forward our understanding of the changes to our society since 1971.
Our LS Champions for this episode are two eminent Population Geographers, the aptly named Tony Champion, Emeritus Professor at the University of Newcastle and Ian Shuttleworth, Professor at Queen’s University Belfast.
Tony and Ian have worked separately and together for more than 30 years using the ONS LS on questions related to internal migration. They’re also planning to use the soon-to-be released 2021 Census data in important new research tracking trends in migration intensity.
