Description

It’s vital that governments think about and plan for the future, but often, our thinking can be limited. 

The models we have in our minds about growth, success, and the environment shape how we imagine life and government in the long term. 

This episode explores how governments can find new ways to frame our future, including degrowth and seven-generation thinking.

Governments are under increasing pressure to bring about the results people expect, while remaining trusted and relevant. And yet, the systems, structures, and processes of government today are often not set up to respond to the complex challenges we face as a society. In recent years, wicked problems such as the global pandemic, climate crisis, persistent racial and economic inequity, as well as a rise in misinformation have brought into sharp focus the need for government to work differently. From the Centre for Public Impact and Apolitical, this podcast explores radical new approaches to addressing the most pressing issues of our time by speaking with public servants and politicians at the heart of government around the world.
