Nobel Peace Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus visit UK on April 2016

Nobel Peace Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus delivered the prestigious ‘Lady Margaret Hall Deneke Lecture" On 29 February on the topic of Redesigning Economics to Redesign the World’
 
Lady Margaret Hall (LMH) was founded in 1878 when Oxford University was not open for women. LMH made it possible for the first time for women to study at Oxford. Hundred years later,  the College began to admit male students as well. LMH is named in honour of Lady Margaret Beaufort, founder of the Tudor dynasty and renowned patron of scholarship and learning. 

Principal of the LMG, Alan Rusbridger, the former editor of The Guardian, honoured him by inviting him to the ceremonial dinner of the Hall attended by all students of the hall.

During the same visit, Professor Yunus has delivered the 150th Anniversary lecture of the Oxford Guild, the oldest student society in Oxford. Professor Yunus inspired the young students at Oxford with his vision of building a better and equitable world during his lecture, which each individual can play a part in creating.
