SXSW EDU 2019

Teach Kids Global Economy, or Goodbye Welfare

Description:

Norway is one of the wealthiest and happiest societies in history. Why? One reason is trust. Norwegians pay their taxes because they get good services in return, and because it helps preserve a safe and egalitarian society which they are deeply attached to. But if the voters and tax-payers of tomorrow don’t understand economics nor taxes, where will their trust go? Tough one. Knut Sverre, from the Oslo agency Hyper, will deliver a report from the frontlines of tech-driven education and learning.
