Does Population Matter?

One of the world’s leading geographers Professor Danny Dorling visits the RSA to argue that our concerns over population growth may be overblown.

The Power of Vulnerability

Influential author and speaker Dr Brené Brown tackles the myth that vulnerability is a weakness. Instead, she argues, it is the clearest path to courage and meaningful connection, and has the power to transform the way we engage and educate.

The NHS turns 65 this year at a time of significant change and unprecedented financial challenge. A panel of influential thinkers from the health sector and beyond debate whether it is time for the NHS to be retired off or whether there is scope for reinvention.
