Politics In The Pub – Loneliness

Listen here to the latest Politics In The Pub – Loneliness

Brisbane Powerhouse, August 20th 2019: Let’s talk about loneliness, together.

We talked about the loneliness epidemic. How big is the problem? Is there a solution out there? A community conversation with a panel of experts, wrestling with questions about loneliness in the digital age, loneliness for marginalised communities, city design and third spaces, and more.

ABC Brisbane’s Rebecca Levingston as MC.

Panelists for the event included:
Sally Morris (Wendybird)
Prof. Nancy Pachana (UQ)
Caroline Stalker (Architecture & Design, Arup)
Dr Stephanie Tobin (QUT)

Politics in the Pub is a free, Q&A style debate which tackles the most pressing contemporary issues for both Australia and the world.

We are grateful to the Patrons of New Farm, My Village News, and the Brisbane Powerhouse for supporting this free community conversation.
