The Work We Need

Ambitious but rooted in the ideas of everyday experts – real workers from all walks of life – Hilary Cottam’s ideals are realistic and hopeful and she boldly asks: how can we redesign work?

In this pertinent event, the internationally acclaimed social entrepreneur will discuss her book The Work We Need, which identifies work as the cultural force at the heart of good lives, strong communities and a sense of a shared national destiny. Crucially, in these dramatic times, she will show us how we can shape this force to meet technological change, our ecological crisis, the challenges of the world’s deep injustices, and, ultimately, how we can create a work revolution.
