Description
Season Two of EQUALS comes to a close! Our season started as the snow fell in Davos, talking to best-selling author Anand Giridharadas about whether we need billionaires. As the coronavirus hit our world, we spoke to activists like the legendary Lidy Nacpil to doctors on the front-line in Nairobi to the unstoppable former UN Special Rapporteur and human rights lawyer Philip Alston. Our hosts Nadia, Nabil and Max are joined by our producer Liz to discuss the highlights and lessons from the season. And we share some exciting news about our next season which will begin in September – kicking off with Kristalina Georgieva, the Managing Director of the world’s most influential global economic institution, the International Monetary Fund.
