Wellbeing, equality, education, corruption, and more - What can we learn from Finland?

Friday, 20 January 2023 - 10:00am to 10:30am

Jennifer talks with Andrew Scott from the Australia Institute Nordic Policy Centre about how Finland manages its affairs so well in quite a few domains like wellbeing, education, equality, gender fairness, and corruption. Andrew discusses why we would be better off learning from Finland than going down the US road.
