Dulwich & District U3A Monthly Open Meeting Wed 11th Nov

Herne Hill Baptist Church, Half Moon Lane SE24 9HU

An Illustrated talk by Benny Dembitzer

'In the Eye of the Hurricane'

Is the large scale increase in refugees reaching Europe a one-off phenomenon or the gradual unfolding of wider and uncontrollable forces involving over-population, climate change, urbanisation, civil wars and global migration?

Benny, who lives locally, is an economist who has specialised in developing countries, particularly in Africa. He is a member of the team that won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1985 and has published books entitled ?The Attack on World Poverty? and ?Sleepwalking into Global Famine?. He lectures frequently at London Universities and to voluntary aid organisations, and has recently returned from a lecture tour of Brazil.

The talk will be followed with Q&A and refreshments.
