Penington Institute is delighted to invite you to the fourth webinar in our Global Perspectives on Australia’s Cannabis Future series: Economics of cannabis regulation.
In this webinar, we are going to explore the commercial and economic aspects of regulated cannabis markets; how regulatory frameworks in other jurisdictions have managed (or failed to manage) these issues; and what Australian policymakers should consider when designing a legal cannabis framework.
We will dive into the details of the following topics:
-
- Balancing tax levels against industry sustainability
-
- The role of prices in public health and illicit market reduction efforts
-
- The promises and pitfalls of funding social services with cannabis taxes
Joining us is an expert guest panel:
-
- Beau Kilmer, Codirector of RAND Drug Policy Research Center
-
- Karen O’Keefe, Director of State Policies at Marijuana Policy Project
-
- Matt Lamers, International Editor of MJBiz Daily
The panel discussion will be facilitated by our Policy Officer, Rhys Cohen.
