Multilateral Dialogues in a Changing World
In the final episode of the Global Futures podcast, we look back at 10 years of the Global Governance Futures (GGF) program and talk with some of our alumni about their experiences and insights gained through the multilateral dialogues forum. We asked: What were their highest hopes for the program when they started? What had attracted them to GGF and what had they wanted to get out of the dialogues? During the program, what did they find worked well? What did not? Why do they think multilateral forums are important for young policy professionals and change makers? And how has the GGF journey impacted their personal and professional lives? Guests: Max Bouchet (Project Manager and Senior Policy Analyst, Brookings), Tessa Dooms (Director of Jasoro Consulting), Nurma Fitrianingrum (Good Governance Project Officer at Tifa Foundation), Felipe Oriá (Co-founder of Movimento Acredito), Helidah ‘Didi’ Ogude (Social Development Specialist, The World Bank Group), Natalie Schnelle (Senior Strategic Consultant at SAP), Liz Schuelke (German Chancellor Fellow).

What Does Climate Change Mean for Water Security?
Climate change is disrupting weather patterns and leading to extreme weather events, such as wild fires, all around the world. Climate-related natural disasters also cause unpredictable water availability, exacerbate existing water scarcities and contaminate established water supplies. In some situations, scarce and valuable fresh water has contributed to conflicts by being a causal factor, target, tool, or weapon. In this episode, we explore what the effects of climate change means for water security around the world and talk to four guests about the weaponization of water, water scarcity, international conflicts over water, and more. Guests: Scott Moore (Director, Penn Global China Program), Jasdeep Randhawa (International lawyer and policy specialist, currently working in the adaptation team at the United Nations Climate Change agency), Susanne Schmeier (Associate professor, IHE Delft), Michelle Toxopeus (Legal researcher, Helen Suzman Foundation).

In this episode Joel Sandhu from the Global Public Policy Institute (GPPi) sits down with Kun Tang to discuss how the Chinese government has been managing the Coronavirus pandemic and its potentially lasting impact on the lives of Chinese citizens.
