Announcing the 2022 Autumn Soundbites and Director's Seminars, a series of public events hosted by the UCL Institute for Global Prosperity
This series seeks to understand how to find a way to prosperity in an era where unprecedented extreme events - a rising humanitarian crisis, health crisis, price shocks, and extreme weather conditions - are becoming the standard.
Indeed, these unparalleled manifestations have been occurring in such a short amount of time that they have undoubtedly come to constitute our new "normal".
Talks in this series will offer innovative approaches to answer this question: How do we create a path to prosperity in such conditions?
Contributors to this discussion will include leading thinkers from various backgrounds to reflect on current beliefs and offer new ways to engender prosperity in our current position.
