Woodward graduated from Keble College, Oxford in philosophy, politics and economics in 1982.

After returning to Britain, he worked as a research coordinator on debt for Save the Children and, after several years as an independent consultant, became a policy officer for Asia for The Catholic Institute for International Relations (now Progressio). He then spent two and a half years as a development economist with the World Health Organization, and several years as an independent consultant, before joining the New Economics Foundation, where he was head of the New Global Economy Programme for three years.
He is again an independent writer and researcher, focusing primarily on global economic governance, the interface between development, the environment and health, and alternatives to the neoliberal model of development. He has also presented evidence to parliamentary committees including the House of Commons Treasury Committee, [1] [2] [3] House of Commons International Development Committee, [4] [5] and the European Parliament.
