Biography

Morag's research focus is on poverty, socioeconomic inequalities, and destitution, particularly where they pertain to children, young people and families. Morag uses longitudinal methods, birth cohort survey data, and administrative data to explore the impacts of longitudinal socioeconomic inequalities on children's cognitive, social, emotional and behavioural developmental outcomes. 

Morag was Deputy Chair of the Scottish Government's statutory Poverty and Inequality Commission from June 2019 to July 2023. She is presently a member of The Promise Oversight Board, which holds Scotland to account around whether it's doing enough to #KeepThePromise.
