How can we connect better in an era of loneliness?

"In a world that is more connected than ever, why do so many of us feel lonely? How can we change this? And what more can policymakers do to help address feelings of isolation and disconnection in society?
This is cross posted from my other group so I will adjust the number of tickets available.

Put your questions about loneliness and its impacts on health, wellbeing, and society to our panel of experts. Together, we will unpack the causes and effects of loneliness – and explore innovative ideas and practical solutions for fostering meaningful connections and belonging in our communities."
The panel discussions at the British Academy are always interesting, I hope you can join me! I only have five tickets so please UPDATE your RSVP by 48 hours prior if you can't make it. Thank you.

Please note there is an attendance contribution of £4 which goes towards the yearly Meetup platform fee, and our organisers voluntary time, both necessary to keep this club alive and running! This fee will be split 50/50 between the host, Giselle, and the group organiser Dul, thank you.
