It's time that we re-engineer our economic, social, and cultural systems for justice.  In this event, the 3rd in our popular Design Principle series, we will explore what it means to be 'Equitable'.

Equitable systems rectify historic injustices, create opportunities for all, ensure that all value created is appropriately compensated, and provide stakeholders with participatory governance.

Join us as we tackle this Design Principle with these incredible speakers.

Note: We will hold the discussion open for 1.5 hours,  for anyone who wants to stay past the 1 hour mark for ongoing Q&A.
