Description

Across the globe, practitioners are working to craft a more just and thriving world. Meanwhile, researchers are engaging in work fundamentally changing how we understand social dynamics. Unfortunately, there is not as much connection between these two spheres as there could be. Practitioners are too often working from incomplete information and faulty theories of change. The Social Science For Good Podcast is a new podcast series focused on connecting change agents and leaders to social science theories and research that might be relevant to their work in an accessible manner.
