Inequality presentations now live

Anyone who missed the conference in Wellington last month on inequality can now see the presentations on the Institute for Governance and Policy Studies website: http://igps.victoria.ac.nz/events/previous_events-2013.html#Jul.

In one of the presentations, Michael Forster from the OECD points out that the top 1% in New Zealand have had 20% of total income growth in the last 20 years.

Other presentations deal with the economic, health and educational costs of inequality, while yet others look at some of the options available for reducing it.
