DESCRIPTION:Behaviour and Health Research Unit Annual Lecture (supported b
 y CPP)\n\nOur speaker will argue that equality remains a long-term goal fo
 r progressive politics\, but that it needs a new definition\, so that we m
 easure equality and inequality less by reference to Gini coefficients of i
 ncome\, or data on wealth\, and more by access to the things that enable p
 eople to lead fulfilling lives - such as decent housing\, universal access
  to good quality schools and healthcare\, clean air\, places for children 
 to play safely\, crime-free neighbourhoods and so on. And where we do cons
 ider income inequality\, we should be clear about the distinctions between
  justifiable inequality (e.g. resulting from effort\, talent\, risk-taking
  etc) and unjustifiable inequality (e.g. race and gender differences).
