Do you like policy? Do you like lunch? 'Policy Bites' is a series of informal lunches on topical issues in economic policy hosted by the ACT Young Economists.

For our first lunch, Dr Nicholas Biddle from the ANU's Centre for Aboriginal Economic Policy Research willl be presenting on some the challenges economists can face in designing and implementing Indigenous policy, including the behavioural economics challenges faced in designing social policy, and difficulties in measuring wellbeing.

In addition to his work on indigenous policy, Dr Biddle is also Deputy Director of the ANU Centre for  Social Research and Methods, and was recently a visiting scholar at Stanford University.

Cost is $10, lunch will be provided. Ticket numbers are strictly limited; register here: https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/policy-bites-economics-in-indigenous-policy-too-much-or-not-enough-tickets-22733188579
