SystemShift

SystemShift Season 3 explores how to create an economy that benefits both people and the planet. Co-hosts Carl Schlyter, Joycelyn Longdon, and Yewande Omotoso tackle the big question: Can change happen in our lifetime? Across eight episodes, they engage with guests from around the world to discuss solutions to societal challenges—from wealth taxes and mental health to the role of AI—all while spotlighting success stories that inspire action. Building on the themes of past episodes, this season takes an intersectional, global approach, featuring perspectives and guests from six continents. By making complex ideas accessible and encouraging listeners to join the conversation, SystemShift empowers a global community to drive systemic change. Hosted on Acast.
