Change Everything: politics for healthy people on a healthy planet
Natalie Bennett, Green Party member of the House of Lords, explores bold ideas for building a sustainable, equitable future, inspired by her book: Change Everything.

Join Natalie Bennett, Green Party member of the House of Lords, for an engaging discussion on the challenges our society faces and the inspiring ideas for change that can guide us toward a healthier, happier, and more sustainable future.
Drawing on her book Change Everything: How We Can Rethink, Repair, and Rebuild Society, Natalie will explore topics such as universal basic income, agroecology, the four-day work week, and free education. She will reflect on how current systems, rooted in outdated notions of growth, competition, and work, have left us grappling with environmental destruction and societal dissatisfaction.
Natalie’s talk will offer fresh perspectives on how we can move forward, with practical and transformative ideas for change. Copies of her book, which combines global insights with local solutions, will be available for purchase at the event.
The event will feature a 30 minute talk from Natalie, followed by Q&A and discussion with the audience.
