The public are facing tremendous suffering from the economic depression currently underway. We hope to initiate a discussion centred on questions such as: How long the depression is likely to last, and what social and political consequences can we anticipate? What are the possible consequences of the economic policies already underway and of structural adjustment led by the IMF? How can we as academics engage, debate and put forward analyses and alternatives in this time of great crisis?

Chair: Dr. Kaushalya Perera Panelists: Prof. Farzana Haniffa, Dr. Ahilan Kadirgamar

Organised by: Kuppi Collective Time and Date: 4pm to 5:30pm, Tuesday, 26 April 2022
