IMMUNOCORE STUDENT CHAMPION TICKETS
In partnership with Immunocore, the Battle of Ideas has announced that they have a number of discounted Student Champion 2016 weekend tickets for current undergraduates and postgraduates – priced at £27.50 a huge saving on the normal concession rate.
The Battle of Ideas is a festival of free-thought and a celebration of powerful, thought-provoking argument. Organised by The Institute of Ideas, it provides an annual forum to discuss and debate some of the most urgent and influential ideas of our time. And given the rise of Trump and the recent Brexit vote, the festival has never seemed more important and urgent.
The festival will take place on the weekend of the 22 and 23 October at the Barbicanin London. The festival will see over 3000 delegates attending more than 100 sessions, as hundreds of speakers from across the globe, representing a wide range of disciplines and viewpoints, tackle some of the most pressing issues of our time.
If you are inquisitive, intellectually curious, and interested in the world around you, do join us for a weekend of high-level, thought-provoking, public debate at the Battle of Ideas festival, organised by the Institute of Ideas!
Your ticket will give you access to the entire weekend programme, including debates such as:
The new populism · Can America be great again? · Generational Inequality – Who should pay for the future? · Why, Robot?Can we teach AI to be ethical? · Decolonising education: is the curriculum ‘too white’? · Cultural appropriation: homage or theft? – Religious education in a secular age and many more.
Themed strands of discussion include: Gender Wars · Battle for Education · Technology and Ethics · Emotional Intelligence · Utopias · Culture Wars · The future now: science and technology · Millennial Dilemmas and more.
