Building a Fairer Post-Pandemic World The Green Renaissance: How to Rebuild the Global Economy

    • Government

It's been said that pandemics act as a "great leveller" – but has that been the case with COVID-19? 

While it’s created millions of new millionaires – and even so-called “COVID billionaires” – it's also pushed 100 million others into extreme poverty.

So should we be surprised? Or has COVID-19 simply exposed and amplified a series of inequalities that existed long before the virus arrived?

In Episode 9, we sit down for an in-depth discussion with Dr. Ashok Khosla (Development Alternatives) to ask: with COVID-19 opening a window into our unequal lives, how do create a fairer, just, and more inclusive post-pandemic world?
