The Centre for Research on the Wider Benefits of Learning (WBL) was
established in 1999 by the then Department for Education and Employment, now
the Department for Education and Skills (DfES). The Centre’s task is to
investigate the social benefits that learning brings to individual learners and to
society as a whole. The views expressed in this work are those of the authors and
