Westminster Forum Projects

Westminster Forum Projects (WFP) operates a group of influential, impartial and cross-party forums in public policy. Our mission is to facilitate the formulation of 'best'​ public policy by providing policymakers and implementers, and those with an interest in the issues, with a sense of the way different stakeholder perspectives interrelate. Usually this is through impartially-framed, inclusive discussion conducted either in public or under the Chatham House Rule. All the Westminster Forum Projects forums enjoy substantial support and involvement from key policymakers within UK and devolved legislatures, governments and regulatory bodies and from stakeholders in professional bodies, businesses and their advisors, consumer organisations, local government representatives, and other interested groups. The forums organise senior-level seminars on a wide range of public policy areas. None of the forums has a policy agenda of its own, other than simply to raise the quality of debate on public policy developments and so create opportunities for informed discussion.
