OECD Podcasts 2022 Year in Review

In December 2022, the OECD released its Digital Security Recommendations to help keep individuals, businesses and governments secure online. Audrey Plonk, head of Digital Economy Policy division for the OECD's Science, Technology and Innovation Directorate, explains the Digital Security Recommendations and what they hope to achieve.

Richard Reeves on improving the well-being of men and boys

The social economy can help boost prospects for women… and men. One of the big problems in tackling gender equality is breaking down gender stereotypes that drive women into what have often been called “pink collar jobs”. These are jobs like childcare, education, personal and household services, plus social work. Nitya Nangalia from SEWA Bharat and Natalie Laechelt from the OECD unpack the role of the social economy in the quest to move beyond pink collar jobs.

Guests: Nitya Nangalia, SEWA Bharat; Natalie Laechelt, OECD Economist 
Host: Shayne Maclachlan

Pink collar jobs: new shades for the social economy

Bertrand Piccard est un « savanturier » psychiatre et explorateur. Il a fait le premier tour du monde en ballon en 1999, puis en avion solaire avec l'avion Solar Impulse en 2015-2016. En tant que Président de la Fondation Solar Impulse, il est aussi un « explorateur de solutions » face au plus grand défi de notre temps : le changement climatique. Après avoir survolé la terre, il travaille à sa sauvegarde et démontre que celle-ci est non seulement possible, mais aussi rentable. Il évoque ici des pistes innovantes et concrètes pour avancer : 1 500 solutions efficientes qui sont à la fois écologiques et rentables. Et face à un cadre juridique et réglementaire anachronique qui ne permet pasr toujours de mettre en place ces solutions, il propose 50 recommandations de loi clés en main pour le moderniser.    

Fidèle à l’esprit de pionnier de ses illustres ancêtres, Bertrand Piccard bouscule nos paradigmes et nos certitudes, ces dogmes qui nous font croire que beaucoup de choses sont impossibles. La protection de l'environnement est une aventure enthousiasmante, qui nécessite d'explorer de nouvelles manières de faire et de penser. Nous pouvons devenir les pionniers d’une saine modernité, dès maintenant... C’est ce que Bertrand Piccard démontre ici, avec la rigueur et l’ardeur d’un découvreur.
