Activity: Talk or presentation types › Public lecture/debate/seminar

Description



- Dr Graham Brownlow, Queen’s University Belfast

The Belfast/Good Friday Agreement ended a three decades-long conflict in Northern Ireland. This presentation examines how peace has brought some economic improvements, including lower unemployment, higher wages for low earners and new industries arriving. But it also highlights how progress in other areas – particularly productivity – has been limited.
