Join us as we explore ways in which dedicated individuals and organisations are working to create The World We Want, a just world where no one is poor.Topics include homelessness, migrant workers, climate justice and ways in which Singaporeans become involved in overseas projects. Sometimes the issues are deadly serious - like a discussion of famine and rape in Somalia. At other times, the conversation is a bit more lighthearted, as when we share shopping tips . . . at social enterprises, of course.
The online synopsis of each segment provides background information and links to organisations making an impact.
Each two-minute episode originally aired on 938LIVE, a MediaCorp Radio channel.
Segments from our first season meanwhile continue to be a great resource. Take a look and have a listen!
