The first was by the faculty dean, Prof Ingrid Woolard (right in picture), on the topic, "Mind the gap: income inequality in post-apartheid South Africa", followed by Prof Guangling Liu (middle in picture), titled "Macro-prudential policy and financial stability: generic versus sector-specific rules". The final lecture was by Prof Ronelle Burger (left in picture) on "Amplifying the voices of our communities".
