IOS podcasts
The overview below shows podcast series related to institutional issues concerning open societies. The podcast series are facilitated by several Institutions for Open Societies' platforms.
Focused on the Future
The long-term impact has major implications in global issues such as climate change, poverty, deforestation, religious conflicts and migration. For these major issues we must develop long-term strategies. In the 'Focused on the Future' Podcast, scientists and stakeholders come together to share perspectives and dialogue on long-term thinking. The conversation begins by sharing a perspective on 'longtermism', from which a stakeholder contributes and poses questions that then prompt discussions with scientists and academics in the field. This collective approach seeks to think critically about the notion of 'longtermism' and the potential for long-term thinking to contribute to equitable solutions.
