Around the world, more than 84 million people have been forcibly displaced. And that's only the number from last time it was counted. In the meantime, the war in Ukraine has unleashed another refugee crisis on top of the devastating ongoing crisis around the world.

This week and to bridge the gap between this years roster and next years line up, we've wrapped up a little special for you of some of the best bits from our 2021 guests.It's a bit of a hash up, remix if you will, so in way of introduction and in order of appearance… here's who to listen for...Our inaugural episode with Ambassador Easkey Britton…We dived in the deep end on all things blue mind and the human / nature connect.One of the most captivating storytellers in, Pete Goss, MBE…His heroic solo circumnavigation in the 1996 Vendee Globe.Director Pippa Ehrlich, the lady behind the lens of 2020's Oscar Award Winning, My Octopus Teacher.A conversation I've long been meaning to have with THE most stoked scientist out there, Charles Post on passionate conservation, science and surf.Good friend of Finisterre Sam Bencheghib and his off the cuff ocean to ocean - NY to LA run across America to save our seas and the plight of plastic pollution.Our first double whammy with Waves For Change Founders Tim Conibear and Ambassador Apish Testscha - discussion the building wave of momentum for surf therapy across South Africa and indeed the world.An honest and frank discussion with the  Gail Gallie of Project Everyone on COP26 and the climate conversation at large.And last but not least, Melissa Reid, the now 3x ISA World Surfing Champion and her journey through sport as a partially sighted surfer and triathlete.So here we go….

This week's guest is Gail Gallie. She's the Co-Founder of Project Everyone where she works alongside the writer and director, Richard Curtis. Project Everyone is a not-for-profit creative communications agency that creates campaigns and supports partners to raise awareness, inspire action and drive accountability for the Global Goals of the United Nations. Their mission is to accelerate progress towards a fairer world by 2030, where extreme poverty has been eradicated, climate change is properly addressed, and injustice and inequality are unacceptable. Gail's own energy is infectious. Even across a Zoom from three thousand miles away, she lifted my sense of possibility. As you'll hear, there have been phases in her career where that hasn't been the case. And, like many leaders, at times she has found herself out of sync with the organization she was running. But through her journey, she has created a life in which her leadership both reflects and empowers her as a human being. In my experience, that is all too rare. Most leaders relentlessly prioritize solving their company's problems over their own personal development. Leadership is a moving target. And if you've listened to this podcast before you'll know that great leadership requires that more than one thing be true at once. You have to care about others. And you have to care about yourself. And sometimes, not in that order.

Putting the world back on track after the pandemic will require a level of cooperation and partnership unlike anything we have seen. That is the conclusion of experts convened by Global GoalsCast to assess the crisis of the Sustainable Development Goals and the road forward.   The world before the pandemic proved dangerously vulnerable because of the very challenges the SDGs are designed to address.“And really this is our opportunity right now to focus in on who is being left behind, who is not getting the access and be able to find those supercharged solutions,” said Annemarie Hou, head of partnerships at the United Nations. “The SDGs are our way out of this, if we work together,” added Rajesh Mirchandani of the UN Foundation. Recorded live at the end of Global Goals week, this is part two of our special on the setbacks and solutions if the world is to build back better. Also featured in this episode are Alan Jope, CEO of Unilever; David Nabarro of the World Health Organization; Gillian Tett of the Financial Times and Kate Garvey of Project Everyone, who noted her organization's proposal to rebrand the SDGs as the Sustainable Development Solutions. Rose Beaumont, from our sponsor, Mastercard, shares more on Mastercard’s index on Women Entrepreneurs.

Returning to work and curbing coronavirus are not competing ideas. That is a false choice. We can have jobs and health by building back in new ways that improve workplaces, education and medical care while deterring the infection.  Co-hosts Edie Lush and Claudia Romo Edelman seek out provocative ideas for immediate change. They are joined in this search by Gillian Tett of the Financial Times, inventor and editor of the FT’s Moral Money newsletter and coverage. “The key question is how do we go forward and build back better and not merely survive but thrive in the future.” Dr. Oxiris Barbot, New York City Health Commissioner, says that “an equity lens” is essential to recognize that risk of disease weighs heavier on communities of color and lower incomes. Repairing this requires not only improved access to health care, but also to better housing, jobs and education. “We are only as healthy as our most challenged resident,” she said. Jack Hidary, the Artificial Intelligence expert, serial entrepreneur and leader of Alphabet’s X project in quantum computing, says that we have sixty days to use the crisis to convince leaders to adopt immediate innovation. He suggests, for example, that big companies decentralize and create satellite offices so no employee has to commute more than ten minutes to a desk. He says he has discussed this with WeWork. He also offers ideas for on-line learning and telemedicine. David Milliband of the International Rescue Committee speaks with Edie about how innovations spurred by the fight against coronavirus may have long-term benefits. Improved sanitary conditions, for example, curb other diseases in poor countries. Milliband notes that the simple instruction to wash your hands regularly is a major challenge for the three billion people who don’t have clean running water at home. Their conversation was part of a ‘ThinkIn’ that our colleagues at Tortoise run for their members and is included in Global GoalsCast with their blessing. Facts about the crisis and Actions to build back better are presented by Alice McDonald of Project Everyone. From our sponsor, Mastercard, Senior Vice President Amy Neale describes how Startpath, Mastercard’s startup network, solved a Covid-19 fundraising challenge for the City of Los Angeles in eight days.

Amanda Mackenzie is one of the UK’s most respected marketers. Beginning her career in agencies, she jumped brand side in 1998 with a series of challenging jobs in unpopular sectors including a stint as CMO of Aviva where she oversaw one of the biggest rebrands in financial services history.   She left marketing in 2015 to work with film-maker Richard Curtis on Project Everyone before becoming CEO of Prince Charles’s charity Business in the Community in 2016. She was awarded an OBE for services to marketing in 2015.   In a wide-ranging interview, Mackenzie discusses: Why marketers should pursue P&L responsibility Why the complexity of unloved sectors should be appealing to marketers The ongoing battle for gender equality in boardrooms Why the “incredible” Richard Curtis is as good a strategist as he is comedy writer Why most brands talking brand purpose are just paying “lip service”

We talk about campaigning, collaboration and the influence of having parents who are very active in the charity space - the filmmaker Richard Curtis and script-writer Emma Freud - they play a big role in not-for-profit organisations such as Project Everyone and the Global Goals. Although they are many dark corners of the Intenet, we talk about the positives: how communities you create via Internet and blogging can help save your life. Scarlett has launched an initiative recently called Un-Idle Collective. They will be hosting meet ups to discuss political and personal issues affecting the world and this week was the first one, we discussed things such as intersectional feminism, the refugee crisis, sustainability, politics, working parents and lots more. It’s about doing something, however small, and about incorporating activism into your daily life. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
