Questions to be explored include:
- How do we finance the lives we want in the face of historically high and rising levels of household indebtedness?
- What are the solutions or escape routes for those enduring such debts, and for transforming the institutions and practices producing them?
- With household debt at historic highs, how to we finance a prosperous life without becoming over indebted?
- Is there a way out of debt-dependency for individuals and the economy?
The event is open to all and free of charge, though the organisers ask you to register in advance here. Questions should be addressed to Christopher Harker.
