Greenpeace International is launching the third season of the SystemShift podcast, in partnership with Crowd Network.
Produced by Manchester-based Crowd, SystemShift was created to expose diverse social and economic issues and their link to the climate crisis.
This season follows the success of the first and second, which focused on global financial systems and the idea of a wellbeing economy respectively.
Season three will explore how to achieve an economy that works for people and the planet while exploring practical solutions to societal and environmental challenges that can drive systemic change. It will also spotlight success stories to inspire listeners to take action.
Using “Can change happen in our lifetime?” as this season’s leading question, co-hosts Carl Schlyter, Jocelyn Longdon, and Yewande Omotoso will explore topics including taxes, mental health, and AI across eight episodes.
The series will include topics, hosts, and guests representing five continents. Listeners from around the world are encouraged to be active participants by sharing their thoughts online, creating a listener community.
Also, for the first time, video episodes of the podcast will be available on Greenpeace International’s YouTube channel, meaning listeners and viewers alike can access the show, including deaf and non-English-speaking people, thanks to the subtitles feature on the platform.
Yewande Omotoso, Story Advisor at Greenpeace International and SystemShift co-host said: “We want to build momentum for the redistribution of wealth and power through SystemShift, using an intersectional approach to shine a light on the hope for social and climate justice.
“Podcasting is a powerful tool for engaging people around the world on climate action, and that’s why we are making this season more accessible than ever.”
Steve Jones, Content Director at Crowd Network added: “Working with an international organisation like Greenpeace International has been incredibly rewarding, and we’ve worked hard to bring the team’s vital work to wider audiences with visual podcasts.
“We’re always pushing boundaries with our collaborators to find exciting ways to access and engage new audiences. Our multichannel content approach, combined with the inspiring discussions in each episode, will inspire SystemShift’s audiences to seek systemic change.”
Season three of SystemShift launches this Wednesday, 22 January.
