GEN Book Club
Kia ora, nau mai rā | Everyone is welcome at the GEN Book Club. We have Auckland and Wellington chapters. Both meet monthly after work in a local pub to discuss a book or article relevant to the use of economics in government, chosen by the members. To join, complete the sign-up form below and follow us on LinkedIn for updates.
