10 week Croydon course
History shows that whenever people work together, they can create great wealth. But for you to get rich do I have to suffer? For me to get rich do you have to be poor? If we both want to prosper can we do it without impoverishing someone else?
But how can we do better? This vital and challenging question is at the heart of our courses. So many of today’s ills spring from the prevailing concept of economics being independent of fairness and morality.
This 10-session course addresses economics as a human subject, the study of relationships between individuals, institutions and communities; based on human values. Hence the importance of what we value, what ethical standing we hold. Each session features a topic presentation designed to encourage discussion and reflection. Come and join us in this fascinating exploration.
Discover the relevance of economics in daily life with our 10-week “Introductory Economics with Justice” course. Dive into engaging discussions, gain a global perspective, and study under the guidance of passionate tutors committed to economic justice. Join our worldwide community and start your journey towards a life of purpose and justice.
This course offers you the opportunity to:
The “Introductory Economics with Justice” Croydon course explores eight essential areas: Economic Justice, Wellbeing, Truth, Opportunity, Understanding, Sustainability, Freedom, and Prosperity. Each week delves into one of these areas, connecting theoretical understanding with practical insights.
“...I really enjoyed the course and would recommend it to anyone with an interest on how our society and our lives are influenced by Economics...”
Our tutors are passionate about the subject and have long studied how fairness can pervade economics. They come from all walks of life, professions, and are volunteers who have continued to study within the School of Philosophy.
“...I would just like to say it’s been a real eye-opener and also a real pleasure to be involved in the course. I have learned a lot and will look at my participation in the economic system very differently from now on...”
“I thought economics was too complicated for me to understand. It needed a degree for sure and [to] dedicate years to understand the complex system. It is complex, but I didn’t realise how much it relates to our daily life activities, how much I am involved in economic activities and how things can be changed and how we must change.”

What’s covered in the 10-week course (click below):
If economics is to work for the wellbeing of people and planet, how can we make it sustainable and for all?
People working with people are stronger for doing so. This is seen in families, communities, organisations, nations and beyond. How is this relevant to economics?
Wealth means different things to different people and yet is universally desirable. What are the realities of this wealth?
Earth with its biosphere supports all economic activity. What is our relationship to it, and what should it be?
We all work in some way, perhaps not for pay; we all depend on the result. Why Is work so important?
Exchanging goods and services can enhance collective prosperity and wellbeing. What causes inequitable outcomes?
Society thrives on trust, exemplified by credit and money. What can make this go wrong?
Enterprise needs finance, society needs investment. What is rent seeking?
Government has power to levy taxation and direct expenditure. How can this power best serve the nation?
This introductory course concludes with reflections on the course so far.
