ECII Group 15 B2+2 Lesson 8

Lesson 8

Thank you to Alessandro and Luca for re-presenting today - much improved!

Input for Seminar Assessment
Mind the Gap - video  Note Taking
 
If you were away today, please watch the video (above) and take notes. Use these questions to help you focus on the most important information.
 
Homework
To prepare for next week's seminar, review the notes you took today. How far do you agree with the ideas expressed in the documentary? If you were a policy adviser in Treasury, what would your advice to the Minister be? Think of legislative measures you could suggest to the Minister e.g. policies on privatisation & deregulation, tougher penalties for tax fraud, policies to encourage and promote social business models, the introduction of a "Robin Hood Banking Tax", a rethinking of benefits and social welfare, raising the minimum wage and/or linking it to a maximum wage, indexing tax rates to increases in inequality.

Now structure your ideas into a short presentation (5 mins) to give to your group. Remember your signposting language and the feedback you received last time.

The Global Social Business Summit is on until 9th November. Watch the live stream here: http://new.livestream.com/accounts/5055332/events/2506011
