The CTNTE is happy to announce their first conference since the global pandemic started: Policies to Tackle the Cost of Living Crisis.

The cost of living crisis, referring to the fall in real disposable incomes, has affected us all to varying degrees. Dysfunctionality in western economies has led to a situation where wage and work are no longer sufficient for income adequacy, and a new policy paradigm is needed to deliver adequate household income and reduce national debt.

CTNTE speakers will cover a range of topics, including:

• The macroeconomic implications of basic income
• The role of technology in reducing labour income, leading to a macroeconomic case for a universal basic income
• Funding basic income by direct money financing
• The links between wealth and income, and their implications for basic income
• National solutions to spiralling costs of living.

Confirmed speakers:

• Dr Francisco Arias: Head of the Tax Policy Unit, Ministry of Finance, Mexico
• Geoff Crocker: Editor and creator of the Basic Income Forum
• Dr Graham Gudgin: Chief Economic Advisor, Policy Exchange; Honorary Research Associate, Judge Business School, University of Cambridge
• Chris Thoung: Director, Cambridge Econometrics
• David Fishman: Independent Researcher and Consultant
• Dr Joe Chrisp: Research Associate, Institute for Policy Research, University of Bath
• Prof Terry Barker: Founder, CTNTE .

Registration for the conference, alongside more detailed information regarding the conference agenda, is available via the CTNT Es events page. If you have any questions or queries, please do not hesitate to email the CTNTE at info@neweconomicthinking.org.uk
