Funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, IFS researchers will be using microsimulation techniques to forecast poverty amongst children and working-age adults in the UK under current tax and benefit policies, taking account of expected macroeconomic and demographic trends. These projections will be produced for each year between 2010 and 2015, as well as for 2020 (the year by which the Government aims to have reduced relative child poverty to 10%).
