Post-Covid Live 3: Everybody counts

"As societies begin to emerge from lockdown, we need now to reinstate the real purpose of an economy; which is to provide quality of life and opportunities to flourish for all."

Published: Tuesday 5 May, 2020



Post-Covid Live addresses the nature of society, the kind of government and the form of economy we will need and want after the crisis. It is no longer possible to endorse the market as the primary mechanism for creating value and solving problems. What kind of values will guarantee quality of life for all and how will they be created and defended? How will the major challenges of our times be tackled - the ones we cannot quarantine ourselves from - climate change, social inequality, food waste, mass displacement?
