Is it possible to combine business, technology and capitalism to solve some of humanity’s greatest challenges? The next Don Dunstan Oration will explore the possibility of a world of zero poverty, zero unemployment and zero net carbon emissions through a new take on current economic systems and incentives. Staff discounts apply.

Presented by Katrina Dunn, CEO of Grameen Australia and former mergers and acquisitions lawyer and leader at a top-tier fund manager, the discussion will include the need to overhaul capitalism and re-consider the focus on growth to ensure prosperity is not compromised.

What if the idea of unemployment was created by the fiction of employment? What if there was a way to combine business, technology and capitalism to solve some of humanity’s greatest challenges? These are some of the questions Ms Dunn will explore in questioning the conservative, mainstream approaches commonly accepted in contemporary economies.

Flinders University is a proud supporter of the Don Dunstan Foundation, which seeks to promote visionary leadership and progressive thinking within government and the private sector in South Australia by furthering debate and action on key policy issues.
