Fireside Chat with Dan Ariely

Australia is at a critical inflection point. As we face persistent financial stress, widening inequality, and eroding trust in institutions, it's clear that traditional policy levers alone are no longer enough. To build a more resilient and inclusive economic future, we must look deeper—into the hearts, minds, and behaviours of everyday Australians.
WeMoney invites you to an exclusive evening at Parliament House with world-renowned behavioural economist Professor Dan Ariely.
Held in the wake of the Financial Wellness Summit in Sydney, this Canberra event will continue the national dialogue on financial wellbeing, this time through a behavioural lens.
