Global governance, often the domain of economists, bankers, and those with tin foil hats is essential if humanity has any hope of facing the existential problems of today. We need strong, democratic institutions, and a global voice for and of the people. Long resigned to science fiction and the aspirations of tyrants, can we build a global government that drives humanity forward? One that creates a more fair and just world? We're joined by global governance expert Augusto Lopez-Claris and economist & philosopher Vivek Dehejia to explore.

Hur går vi från att känna oss lamslagna av insikten om de hot mänskligheten står inför, till att förstå vad vi kan göra åt dem? I Systemskiftets fjortonde avsnitt träffar vi Linda Burenius från Global Challenges Foundation. Vi pratar klimatkris, energiomställning och effektivisering inom planetens gränser. Även risker som går under radarn såsom kärnvapenkrig och AI berörs i detta avsnitt. Our GDPR privacy policy was updated on August 8, 2022. Visit acast.com/privacy for more information.

September 9th, 2020 Soushiant Zanganehpour developed one of the three winning proposals in the Global Challenges Foundation's 1.8 million dollar New Shape Prize to re-envision global governance for the 21st century! His groundbreaking plan envisions global governance through bottom up deliberation. He is developing a new platform that enables organizations -- or the world -- to include as many voices as possible to make the best decisions to complex problems. His system boosts engagement and reduces bias with the help of collective intelligence. Can this empower our ability to create workable solutions to pandemics and oppression, ecocide and nuclear annihilation? www.swae.io -- See the video at: PeoplePoweredPlanet.com -- Music by: „World Citizen“ Jahcoustix feat.

Mänsklighetens existens har alltid varit under olika typer av hot, och i dag är vissa av dem som bekant extra skrämmande. Som tur är finns det ett växande antal människor som arbetar med att analysera, förebygga och samordna för att bygga motståndskraft och därmed reducera de katastrofala riskerna. Jens Orback är tidigare statsråd och journalist. I dag axlar han rollen som vd för stiftelsen Global Challenges Foundation, som samlar forskare och tänkare för att öka medvetenhet och dialog kring risker på global nivå. Ett lika svårt som viktigt arbete. Inspelat på Helio/GT30 i Stockholm // Programledare: Christian von Essen // Läs mer på http://www.hejaframtiden.se

Begreppet rättvis omställning försöker lösa världsfattigdomen och klimatförändringarna i ett slag. Det verkar ju lovande. Men först gäller det kanske att reda ut vad som är rättvist? Den internationella fackföreningsrörelsen och andra organisationer har börjat arbeta utifrån idén om en just transition, rättvis omställning, sociala insatser för att tillvarata arbetstagarnas rättigheter och försörjningsmöjligheter i omställningen av ekonomin till klimatmässigt hållbar produktion. Ett dubbelt arbete mot fattigdom och klimatförändringar. Att utsläppen av växthusgaser måste minska kraftigt är de flesta överens om, men hur och av vem? Vems är ansvaret när rättvisa tycks bero på egenintresse? Från kinesiskt perspektiv kan det vara rättvist att räkna allt ackumulerat utsläpp historiskt, medan västvärlden kanske menar att man bör räkna från här och nu - förr visste vi ju inte att det var skadligt! Samtal mellan Maja Aase, kommunikationsstrateg vid fackens biståndsorganisation Union to Union, nationalekonom Andreas Bergh vid Lunds universitet och filosof Magnus Jiborn, forskningsansvarig vid Global Challenges Foundation. Programledare är Lars Mogensen, producent Thomas Lunderquist.

There is a certain category of disaster, whether manmade or natural, that poses an existential threat to humanity.  These are called global catastrophic risks. Some of these are fairly obvious, like nuclear war, and some may seem more the realm of science fiction like an asteroid impact.  My guest today, Jens Orback is the CEO of the Global Challenges Foundation, a Sweden based group that is seeking to prevent these catastrophes through enhanced international cooperation.  What binds each of these risks is not only their potential to destroy humanity, but also that they can be mitigated through stronger international cooperation and global governance. https://www.wvi.org/risingtorespond  https://www.globaldispatchespodcast.com/a-bold-new-idea-for-un-reform/     

Covid-19 is showing up a general failure by most of the world's governments to prepare for the worst. Manuela Saragosa speaks to Dr Sylvie Briand at the World Health Organization, whose job is to get the world ready for new infectious outbreaks like coronavirus. What was it like for her exhortations to fall on deaf ears up until this year? How prepared was the WHO itself, and does she fear the consequences if the multilateral organisation is defunded? Meanwhile, author and risk consultant David Ropeik explains why human nature makes us so bad at taking action to ward of disasters that happen once in a blue moon. And Jens Orback, head of the Global Challenges Foundation, says pandemics are only one of a host of terrifying cataclysms that we disregard at our peril.

Hollywood directors, neighborhood movie theatres and sci-fi authors have for many years, with spectacular visuals, shown us dramatic theories on how society as we know it will end. A team of scientists from Oxford University’s Future of Humanity Institute and the Global Challenges Foundation, after researching the topic, even established a list of twelve possible ways that human civilization will end.

I spent the last weekend of May at a conference in Stockholm called the New Shape Forum. This was an ideas festival and prize competition and workshop all around new ideas for better organizing the world to confront catastrophic global risks.   The Global Challenges Foundation, which convened this, solicited new ideas for global governance and received several thousand ideas from all over the world. Of these submissions, 14 finalists were selected to present their ideas at the New Shape Forum.   And then those of us invited to the conference all got down to work. We identified the ideas we thought we could help refine and spent two days building upon them. At the end of the conference, three of those 14 ideas were selected as winners, and the winning ideas got $600,000 each.    My guest today, Natalie Samarsinghe is one of those winners. She is the executive director of the United Nations Association of the United Kingdom--though she wants to stress that this episode was recorded in her personal capacity, as was the idea she submitted.    She came up with a proposal for a novel kind of UN Reform --  not a reform of the Security Council, or the General Assembly. Rather, it is a proposal for how UN agencies can better design and implement programs and projects around the world.    You can find the other two winning ideas and other finalists at Global Challenges.org    This episode is presented by the Global Challenges Foundation, which recently convened the New Shape Forum in Stockholm. This was a platform where over 200 leading thinkers and experts discussed fresh ideas for improving global governance to tackle the world's most pressing problems. Next, the Global Challenges Foundation is partnering with the Paris Peace Forum in November to present further developed and more holistic ideas for confronting global catastrophic risks.  Visit GlobalChallenges.org to learn more.

Last year the Global Challenges Foundation launched a contest for the design of a better governance model for handling the tough issues posing the greatest risk to the survival of humanity and the health of the earth. Sponsored by Swedish billionaire Laszlo Szombatfalvy the prize fund of $5 million inspired responses from 2700 participants from 122 nations world-wide. The award of 3 finalists out of 14 identified took place May 27-29th in Stockholm. Dawna was there participating in the workshops with other committed change agents from countries all over the world.In this episode, Dawna shares what happened, what is next and what kinds of conversations took place. For more information go to the https://globalchallenges.org/ website.Intro music to the podcast is contributed by Mark Romero Music.Host Dawna Jones is the author of Decision Making for Dummies, speaker, and designer of transformational processes particularly in complex systems.

I was a bit skeptical when my guest today told me that every person on the planet, in any 24 hour period, is somehow impacted by the work of the UN and other international entities in Geneva. Still, Michael Møller would be in a position to know. He is the Director General of the UN Office in Geneva, which makes him a very senior UN official. And I must say, he was convincing. As the director general explains, the mundane routines of life -- everything from brushing my teeth in morning to calling my grandmother in Montreal -- is touched by work done in Geneva. We also discuss the work of the UN Conference on Disarmament, of which Moller is the titular hear. I will be seeing Michael Møller in Stockholm next week where he will be delivering a keynote address to the New Shape Forum. This is a conference and ideas festival convened by the Global Challenges Foundation. We kick off this conversation discussing what Michael Møller is looking forward to from the New Shape Forum and also he previews some of the remarks he'll be delivering at his keynote address.   This episode is presented in partnership with the Global Challenges Foundation, whose aim is to contribute to reducing the main global problems and risks that threaten humanity. Last year, the Global Challenges Foundation held an open call to find new models of global cooperation better capable of handling the most pressing global risks. In May this year at the New Shape Forum in Stockholm, the top proposals will be presented publicly and further refined through discussions with key thought leaders and experts.

To the people of Kiribati, climate change is an existential threat.  This is an Island nation in the pacific -- it is a string of atolls about halfway between Australia and Hawaii. It has a population of about 100,000 and is known for its vast Tuna stocks. But climate change and rising sea levels are making much of Kiribas uninhabitable--it is a country that is facing extinction. And not in some distant future. This is happening now.  My guest today, Anote Tong served as President of Kiribas from 2003 to 2016. President Tong is well known in international circles for being a powerful advocate on behalf of people living in small island states that are on the front line of climate change.  What I found so interesting about this conversation was learning how President Tong's advocacy in international forums has evolved over time--and how this existential threat contributed to President Tong's decision to create what is the world's largest marine sanctuary--the Phoenix Islands Protection Area. This episode is presented in partnership with the Global Challenges Foundation, whose aim is to contribute to reducing the main global problems and risks that threaten humanity. Last year, the Global Challenges Foundation held an open call to find new models of global cooperation better capable of handling the most pressing global risks. In May this year at the New Shape Forum in Stockholm, the top proposals will be presented publicly and further refined through discussions with key thought leaders and experts. US$5 million will be awarded to the best ideas that re-envision global governance for the 21st century. President Tong is a Global Challenges Foundation ambassador and in the conversation we discuss this prize and why new ideas for global governance are important for the future of small island states like Kiribati.  

With Houston still reeling from Hurricane Harvey, Irma causing massive havoc in the Caribbean, and more storms on the way, I thought it would be timely and interesting to speak with my guest today, Maria Ivanova Maria Ivanova is an academic who straddles the university and policy worlds to help think through the connections between human security, environmental stresses and global governance--that is, the mechanisms that the international community and beyond have designed to deal with environmental challenges. In this conversation she helps put the onslaught of these hurricanes into a kind of broader global context that addresses how the international community might more productively organize itself to confront the realities of climate change.   Maria is a Professor of Global Governance and Director of the Center for Governance and Sustainability at the John W. McCormack Graduate School of Policy and Global Studies at UMass Boston and a Visiting Scholar at the Climate CoLab at MIT. She is also Ambassador for the New Shape Prize of the Global Challenges Foundation. This is a $5 million prize that will be awarded next year to "the best ideas that re-envision global governance for the 21st century." Toward the end of this conversation we discuss what exactly that means.     Become a premium subscriber to unlock bonus episodes, earn other rewards, and support the show!

Which Funds are Worth Paying For? High active share funds - that is those managers who take off benchmark bets - outperform those low active share. So ban closet trackers from your portfolio suggests Finance professor Martijn Cremers.
