PRESS RELEASE: UK Economic Historian Christopher Houghton Budd visiting Melbourne for a 5 day residency

“When you have a global financial system, the only way you can localise it is through your consciousness.”
“The origin of credit is your initiative, your idea.”
“If I ruled the world, I would require every teenager to be taught financial literacy in a true fashion”
(Christopher Houghton Budd)

Dr Christopher Houghton Budd is an internationally-renowned economic and monetary author and historian specialising in Rudolf Steiner’s contribution to our understanding of modern economic life, especially on macro-financial issues, school financing, financial literacy and such concerns as farm succession and farming economics generally. His many workshops continue to involve installations and the use of pastel-illustrated black panels – an important medium well-known for its use by Steiner and Josef Beuys in their own expositions on economics.
