SystemShift
Season 3 is here! Watch and Listen now.

Today, people have to deal with their basic end-of-the-month needs, while facing the end of the world in the form of extreme social inequality and climate chaos. We recognise that only environmental solutions that connect with people’s everyday concerns and beliefs will realise our vision for a green and peaceful planet.
SystemShift helps us explore how to move from a world that serves the economy to an economy that works for people and the planet.
SystemShift podcast looks for answers and stories of justice, solutions, and alternatives, collaboratively showing how other ways are possible, through a decolonising, intersectional and hopeful point of view.
Season three of this podcast series will explore how we move from a world that serves the economy to an economy that works for people and the planet. The theme of this season is change, and each episode we speak to guests across the world to hear how they’re changing the planet for the better.
