Kevin Gallagher, Professor of Global Development Policy at Boston University’s Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies and Director of BU’s Global Development Policy Center (GDP Center), and Richard Kozul-Wright, Director of the Globalisation and Development Strategies Division at the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), appeared on the Sustainability Agenda podcast to discuss their ideas for a new Bretton Woods to deal with inequality and climate breakdown.
In his remarks, Gallagher discusses the need for reforming the international economic order to address pressing climate and development challenges.
