Richard Wilkinson

Richard Wilkinson is a prominent researcher known for his work on income inequality and its impact on society. He argues that higher levels of inequality are linked to worse overall health, social trust, and community well-being, even for those who are wealthy. Wilkinson’s studies suggest that societies with less income disparity tend to have stronger social cohesion, better health outcomes, and fewer social problems. His work emphasizes that reducing economic inequality can improve quality of life and social stability for everyone.
