社会的投資:知っておくべきこと

Share:

警察長官は社会投資庁の長になるために辞任します。ニコラ・ウィリス財務相は、社会の脆弱な人々を支援することを目的とするこの機関に強い関心を持っています。政府は当初、政府機関に資金を提供しましたが、資金の方法と規模はまだ明確ではありません。

ソーシャル・インベストメント・エージェンシーは、データとエビデンスを活用して、政府だけでなく地元の組織とも協力しながら、困っている人々を支援するためのより良い方法を模索しています。ウィリスは、このアプローチは常識であると考え、「予防は治療よりも優れている」と述べています。目標は、後に政府の援助に頼るのではなく、教育や保健支援などの早期介入によって脆弱な人々を支援することです。

この社会投資の考え方は、ビル・イングリッシュ前首相によって最初に推進されました。彼が注目したのは、早期介入がリスクにさらされている子供たちのアウトカムを改善し、将来の政府費用を削減できることを示す統計です。例えば、問題を抱えた家庭の子供たちは、多くの場合、学校で苦労したり、給付金に頼ったり、刑務所に入れられたりする可能性が高くなります。

ウィリスは、社会投資とは単により多くのお金を使うことではなく、現在の資金をより効果的に使ってより良い成果を達成することだと強調しました。彼女は、新しい方法を試し、社会サービスを改善するための基金を設立することを目指しています。この基金は来年から少額で開始される予定ですが、時間が経つにつれて増える可能性があります。

ウィリスはまた、フィードバックやアドバイスを提供するための新しい諮問グループ「ソーシャル・インベストメント・ボード(Social Investment Board)」を設立する予定ですが、ポリシーの作成は行いません。理事会は6人から8人のメンバーで構成され、政府のガイドラインに従って報酬が支払われます。

政府はまた、責任あるデータ使用の必要性を認識しており、必要としている人々を支援するためにデータを活用しながら、国民の信頼を維持することを目指しています。

社会投資庁は、現警察長官のアンドリュー・コスターが間もなく引き継ぐ予定です。彼はこの新しい役割を、より大きな問題に発展する直前に問題に取り組み、地域社会にプラスの影響を与えるチャンスだと考えています。彼の過去の一部の政治家との関係は厳しいものでしたが、現在の政府は彼の功績を称賛しています。

全体として、新政府機関は、地域社会と納税者の両方に利益をもたらす焦点を絞った社会的投資を通じて生活を改善することを目指しています。
