Sat 11 Sep, 4pmState Library Victoria, Village Roadshow Theatrette
Most want to leave a fairer, healthier and cleaner world than the one they inherited. But with the looming, existential threat of climate change, as well as issues like underemployment and rapidly rising housing prices, how can today’s policymaking better reflect tomorrow’s voices? Hear from the CEO of the Grattan Institute Danielle Wood as she delivers this year’s John Button Oration on our obligations to the next generation, drawing insight from her extensive work on economic reform and systemic inequality.
