The Common Ground Podcast

The Common Ground Podcast

By Francesca Fearnley

In a time of ecological and climate crises, of rising inequality, social justice and global instability, it can all seem just a little bit overwhelming.


That's why The Common Ground Podcast brings you the stories of those in the social and environmental sector who, driven by passion, are striving fiercely to make our common home better for all those who live here. 


Each week we'll hear from a new guest, who'll tell us the issue that spurred them to take action and how they got started, to help inspire you to create positive change in the world.
