About This Podcast

Join Concordia University's School of Community and Public Affairs students as they get to know various changemakers and learn what it really takes to strive for social justice. In each episode, we speak to people trying to create a better world: the stories of their beginnings, the causes they hold dear, and the trials and tribulations of their work. Through oral history interviews, we aim to contribute knowledge and inspire change by connecting individual stories to broader social movements. Disclaimer: Some episodes delve into sensitive content that may be difficult for some listeners.
