Think Change Rewind at 50: highlights from our favourite episodes
Manage episode 430523612 series 3495163
This episode revisits some of our favourite conversations since the first Think Change podcast aired back in March 2022.
Since that time we have released over 50 episodes and been lucky to host some brilliant guests, who have shared their analysis and stories with us on a range of critical global issues – from MDB reform and the debt crisis in the Global South to the future of the Africa-China relationship and the latest concerning developments in Gaza.
The themes examined across all episodes are incredibly diverse, but they share a focus on reimagining a new vision for international cooperation in our polarised world – and a hope for building a more equal, peaceful and resilient planet.
Browse and listen back to all episodes of the Think Change podcast.
