If you live in Melbourne, please consider attending the 123rd Henry George Commemorative dinner, hosted by Prosper Australia, on Wednesday 3 September at the Royal Society of Victoria, 8 Latrobe St, Melbourne.
This year’s guest speaker is Professor John Freebairn from Melbourne University, one of Australia’s most pre-eminent economists (and my first microeconomics lecturer). With the state election nearing, Professor Freebairn will be speaking on the reforms Victoria needs to keep on the move.
Professor Freebairn holds the Ritchie Chair in Economics at the University of Melbourne, and has had a distinguished career in applied microeconomics and economic policy analysis. You can read some of his recent analysis here and here.
Tickets are $30, and include a light meal and lecture.
Again, the details are:
Wednesday September 3rd from 6 pm
Royal Society of Victoria, 8 Latrobe St, Melbourne
I will be there, and look forward to meeting readers in person.
