Our guest today is one of the UK's most influential economists, Andy Haldane, Chancellor of the University of Sheffield and President of the British Chambers of Commerce. Formerly Chief Economist at the Bank of England, he co-founded Pro Bono Economics and has spent his career at the intersection of economics and society.
In this episode, we ask: how can government, business and philanthropy work together to build a more resilient society?
Mary Rose and Andy explore what devolution could mean for civil society, and how philanthropists can back the local leaders closest to the problem. They discuss how cross-sector working could help address Britain's NEET crisis and how flexible working is opening up space for skilled volunteering among experienced professionals looking to put their expertise to purposeful use.
