Public services in the age of populism: how do we fix the NHS and NHS productivity?

Monday 28 April

In the UK election, one domestic policy issue loomed large above everything else: the NHS. But when finances are tough, NHS improvement will prove a challenge unless we can improve NHS productivity. This seminar, part of St Antony’s Visiting Parliamentary Fellowship series, will go to the heart of one of the biggest domestic policy reforms, and debate where the role of the state should begin and end and where the limitations of the NHS may lie.

How to End Wars: Pragmatic Approaches to Peacebuilding

Thursday 8 May

Over the past 50 years, the Cyril Foster Lecture series has delivered engaging lectures from some of the world's most influential policymakers and academics. This year's lecture will bring together two internationally renowned speakers on peace activism and peacekeeping; Christine Ahn and Lt Gen (Ret) Dan Leaf, US Air Force. Both have decades of experience working in conflict zones, and will share insights from their work, their collaborations and discuss the politics and process of ending wars.

Nature Needs You!

Friday 4 July

Hannah Bourne-Taylor, author and bird conservationist, has written the extraordinary story of how she created a national campaign to save swifts from extinction. Hannah’s aim was to try and change the law to make ‘swift bricks’ (that provide a cavity nesting habitat for eight species of urban birds) compulsory in new builds across the UK. Hear Hannah recount how she launched her ‘swift brick’ campaign from scratch, without any financial backing, contacts or experience, armed only with her tenacity, passion, integrity and humour.
