Housing, inclusion, and social equity: A global perspective
- Keynote address by DPM Tharman Shanmugaratnam (from 23:18 min)

On November 30, the Center on Children and Families at Brookings, Washington University in St. Louis, Duke University, and the National University of Singapore hosted an event featuring a keynote address from the deputy prime minister of Singapore, and contributions from scholars and policymakers from the U.S., Singapore, the United Kingdom, and India.
