Speaker: Professor Sir Partha Dasgupta

Further details: Sir Partha Dasgupta, Professorial Research Fellow of the Sustainable Consumption Institute and world-leading economist, will be making a case for students of consumption and policy makers to recognise that as we humans are social animals, each of us looks over our shoulders to see what others are consuming when we come to choose our own consumption - a kind of "neighbourhood effect".

Registration with tea/coffee begins at 4pm

Entry is free, but a ticket will be required for entry.
