Expect Better

The University's public work on reassurance, waiting, and the everyday ache

A civic brochure sets out the University's public work on how expectation and reassurance shape the small discomforts of an ordinary day, in three everyday settings (the waiting room, the kind word, and the plaster on the knee) across the School of Continuous Improvement, the School of Emergent Priorities and the School of Underlying Conditions. It invites those who run and use shared spaces to take part, and rests the work on six published outputs cited by title and DOI.
