Event details
Festival of Social Science event
In collaboration with the Fairness Foundation and the Campaign for Social Science, this event will draw on the issues discussed in Will Snell’s recently published book, “The Fair Necessities: Why We Need a Fairer Britain and How to Make It Happen”. Key questions that will be discussed by a panel of experts as well as by audience participants in small groups include:
- How can we define and measure fairness?
- Why does fairness matter and how much do people care?
- What can we do to make Britain fairer?
This event will be a chance to hear from academic experts but also share your thoughts with them and other participants.
