Deficit - on the value of care

What to know

What is value really - and who determines it? Experience Emma Holten's thought-provoking lecture that turns our understanding of economics and society upside down When Emma Holten came across an article in 2020 that declared women an economic deficit, it was the start of a showdown with a deeply rooted mindset. Because can it really be true that half of the population "takes more than they give"? Or is it our way of measuring value that is lacking? With sharpness, insight and presence, she challenges the models we normally take for granted. She shows how care, relationships and daily, often invisible work are not only important, but absolutely crucial for both the economy and everyday life to be connected. Together we gain new perspectives on work, equality and the choices we make as individuals and as a community. Look forward to an evening that challenges your assumptions and asks a simple but crucial question: If we don't value what is most important - what are we really building our future on? - Date: 28 September 2026 - Time: 19:00–21:00 - Venue: Hedensted Bibliotekerne - Address: Østerbrogade 26, Hedensted, Denmark - Admission: From DKK 100
