Introducing Capital for Good Season Three

Author: Tamer Institute for Social Enterprise and Climate Change November 1, 2023 Duration: 2:11

We find ourselves at a moment of great challenge – and opportunity.  In this season of Capital for Good, we'll explore how the world's political, economic, and climate crises have compelled us to reimagine how leaders across the private, nonprofit, and public sectors champion social and environmental change in ways that truly advance shared prosperity and a sustainable future.

This season host Georgia Levenson Keohane will speak with a dynamic line-up of leaders, including business and nonprofit leader Andrea Jung, the former CEO of Avon and current president and CEO of Grameen America; Nick Turner, the president of the Vera Institute of Justice; Pulitzer prize winner, New York Times writer, and author David Leonhardt; Sonal Shah, the CEO of the Texas Tribune; political strategist and arts and civic leader Luis Miranda; corporate and sustainability pioneer Audrey Choi; Shaun Donovan, government leader and current Enterprise Community Partners CEO; and Suzanne Nossel, CEO of PEN America, the leading human rights and free expression organization; and more!


Hosted by the Tamer Institute for Social Enterprise and Climate Change, Capital for Good is a conversation about the practical tools and shifting mindsets needed to finance a better world. This isn't about abstract ideals; it's a grounded look at how capital-from impact investing and philanthropic dollars to corporate and public funds-can be actively directed to solve our most pressing problems. Each episode features candid discussions with leaders who are on the front lines, reimagining the roles of business, nonprofit, and government in an era defined by intersecting crises. You’ll hear how they are building new models that address systemic inequality and the urgent threat of climate change, not as separate issues, but as interconnected challenges requiring innovative financial and managerial strategies. Tune in for a thoughtful, actionable dialogue that moves beyond theory to explore what works, what doesn’t, and how the flow of money can be harnessed for genuine, lasting progress. This podcast digs into the real-world decisions shaping a future where investment and social good are fundamentally aligned.
