 \nAndy Haldane will talk on on the issue of at an aggregate level\, there 
 has been a strong recovery in the UK economy over the past three years and
  a dramatic improvement in the jobs market. For many\, the economic recove
 ry has been visible and tangible - in sales\, in jobs\, in investment. But
  for others it is barely visible and for some non-existent. Put differentl
 y\, whose recovery are we actually talking about? This economic recovery h
 as varied considerably across different dimensions depending on: where in 
 the country you live\, how old you are\, what assets you own and your inco
 me level. For growth to be sustainable and strong it needs to be inclusive
  and comprehensive.\nThis talk will discuss how we might reconcile the mac
 ro data with these micro accounts\, and what role public policy should see
 k to play over time to close these fault-lines and achieve inclusive and s
 ustainable rises in societal well-being.\n\nPlease contact the seminar org
