7pm (bar open 6pm)
Upstairs at The Yorkshire Grey, 2 Theobalds Road, WC1X 8PN
Professor Ian Roberts, author of The Energy Glut: The Politics of Fatness in an Overheating World
Movement for Liveable London promotes discussion on how a fairer, healthier, greener and more pleasant future for London can be achieved by changing the way we move around our city.
"We aim to stimulate debate amongst citizens, campaigners, professionals and policy makers in the hope that together we might encourage politicians at all levels and of all persuasions to be more ambitious in their approach to sustainable movement and the design and management of London's public realm.
We do this through hosting events, publishing articles and facilitating a dialogue between existing campaigns and other interested parties."
Street Talks are informal evening events that provide an opportunity for anyone with an interest in the way people move around London and use its streets and public spaces to come together and discuss what can be done to create a more liveable city.
Past speakers include Oliver Schulze, Director, Gehl Architects; Stuart Reid, Director of Sustainable Transport and Communities, MVA Consultancy; and Anna Minton, author of Ground Control. Presentations from all previous Street Talks are available here.
