Richard Denniss is guest speaker at the 2024 Wilks Oration in Adelaide.

Australia is one of the richest countries in the world but while we can apparently afford tax cuts for high income earners and submarines, we “can’t afford” to increase unemployment benefits, address child poverty or even protect our endangered species from the climate change we do so much to cause.

Join Richard to debunk the nonsensical economic arguments used to justify our ongoing failure to reduce inequality and discuss the simple solutions available for any parliament that is serious about reducing poverty, making housing cheaper, reducing Australia’s emissions…or all of them at once.

The 2024 Wilks Oration is presented by the Effective Living Centre who should be contacted with any enquiries about this event.
