Big Change? The place of place

Second-hand Rose: living in the land of borrowed identity crisis

2pm - 2.50pm | Saturday 14 July

National identity is a peculiarly post-colonial obsession. We want to be different and seem so to the world.

Panel,

Parent guilt

1pm - 1.50pm | Sunday 15 July

We all suffer from it, don’t we? But does it make us better parents or produce questionable behaviours? Join a scientist, musician and psychiatrist for this no-holds-barred discussion peppered with amusing anecdotes and some proper science!

Panel,
