The Sustainability Options Podcast

This episode we speak with Mount Maunganui college student, Jem Dougal, who is both politically active and incredibly grounded.
He shares his experience of being a tax payer who has no voice when it comes to what this country invests in.
He talks about his future, clouded by AI and environmental concerns yet somehow stays optimistic in his well considered views. 
Join us for this very provocative discussion.

This week, Nik and Jo are joined by Ian Herbert, the University of Otago BIOFIN (Biodiversity Finance) Assessment lead.
Ian is an economist and an advocate for nature, and shares his insight as to how a sustainable environment can support a prosperous economy.

This week, Nik and Jo chat with Gareth Hughes, Director of Wellbeing Economy Alliance (WEALL) Aotearoa, author, and political commentator.
They explore the work WEALL is doing to amplify grass roots activity nationally as well as internationally.  This includes everything from social cohesion through to citizens assemblies as well as practical ways people in business can contribute to transforming our economic system. 
It’s a really interesting and inspiring conversation about what change can look like in practice.

Join us this season of the podcast as we explore what is required from us to move towards an economy that serves people and planet.
On this episode of the podcast, Jo and Nik sit down with political economist, writer and advocate for economic system change, Dr Katherine Trebeck, to get her expert opinion on the current state of our economy, and what we can do to improve it.

In this episode of The Sustainability Options Podcast, Jo shares on an upcoming workshop that she is running, relevant to businesses and the Inner Development Goals.
