Description: A two-part podcast produced by members of the European Research Council's “Hau of Finance” project: ERC consolidator grant no. 772544.

David Wood describes the evolution of responsible investment - its approaches and institutions like the United Nations-supported Principles for Responsible Investment - over the last decade. Wood also explains why the need for a framework to economic inequality is essential in understanding the systemic risks it represents for society at large. How have the UN's Sustainable Development Goals dimensionalised inequality, enabling a better understanding for investors? How can we reconcile the rise of populism in the United States with the policies under the Trump administration that would appear to exacerbate economic inequality?

Prof. David Wood, Harvard Kennedy School, on Economic Inequality

How can companies become effective forces for good? Former Unilever CEO Paul Polman joins Jason Mitchell on this episode of ‘A Sustainable Future’ podcast to discuss his new foundation Imagine and its mission to help businesses fight inequality and climate change. 

In this far-reaching conversation, Paul talks through how the multi-stakeholder model is driving a rethink of traditional shareholder-centrism and why strong leadership is vital not only in steering through the current crisis, but also long-term sustainability issues like climate change.
