Description
It seems like every day there’s an important new book being written on global challenges like poverty and climate change. This podcast is for anyone fascinated by books like these, especially the ones that challenge preconceived notions and present innovative ideas.
Each month, Devex President and Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar will sit down with a different author, academic, or development practitioner to discuss a new dimension of these constantly evolving sectors.
