On Sunday 20th May, GREENBELT is pleased to be hosting an afternoon of thought-provoking short talks from some of your favourite Greenbelt contributors including economists, campaigners, artists and thinkers (see below for the full lineup and talk titles).
The event – which takes place at the Greenbelt offices in London – will start discussion around Greenbelt’s theme for 2012 – Saving Paradise. Each of the ten speakers will be offering ideas around how paradise was lost, and how it might be possible to recover it again.
