It's a back to the future theme: Girol Karacaoglu (VUW, former Treasury) asks if we can turn the Covid crisis into a pivot towards intergenerational equality, and Geoffrey Rice, author of Black November walks us through the human & policy impact of the 1918 influenza pandemic.

As you might expect, 2021 #NZPopCon: 'Population Beyond the Pandemic' originally scheduled for 8-9 September at @AucklandUni has been postponed until we are 'beyond' rather than 'inside' this current bump in the pandemic ride. New date coming soon... https://t.co/bCblFwHwBi
