  • A super easy

    I found Steven’s podcast about the Incorporated Society Act 2022 super easy to listen to, thanks so much. I loved that it was broken down into 10 points and easy was discussed at a high level. Though we were also told how to get further info. It was made even more interesting by having 2 presenters alternating through the 10 points. Top rating!

  • Great podcast that explores great ideas!

    This is a brilliant and unique collection of podcasts which contain a broad range of perspectives that are not often explored as much as they should be. Very interesting focus on the impacts business can have on the world more widely and the innovative and new ways to think about how we do things from people who are trying them out first hand!

Shamubeel Eaqub on social change, cohesion, how we measure an economy and more at the Seeds Impact Conference
Q: What newer ways of framing the economy do you see beyond GDP, and how might these shapes influence the future?
The discussion highlights well-being frameworks, Māori perspectives, and the idea that prosperity is driven by culture and institutions, not just income or GDP. The goal is to measure whether more people are better off with dignity for the vulnerable, guiding a broader, more humane economic outlook.
