1: Introduction: System Change Without Saying “System Change”

If I Ruled the World by Gillian Burke

In the inaugural episode of Gillian Burke's podcast, 'If I Ruled the World,' she shares the purpose and planned trajectory of the series. The podcast aims to explore ideas around system change, engaging with change makers across various sectors to discuss how they would enact positive change if they ruled the world. The podcast intends to delve into how different sectors can contribute to making the world a better place, examining the interconnectedness of human and natural worlds. Burke also introduces Triodos Bank UK, the podcast's sponsor, and shares her excitement about her first guest, Jojo Mehta, the Co-Founder and director of Stop Ecocide International.
