Dr. Addiss, Buesseler, Dr. Grant, & Dr. Reid: Compassion at the Heart of Systems

Dr. Addiss, Buesseler, Dr. Grant, & Dr. Reid: Compassion at the Heart of Systems

In our last episode with Dr. David Addiss, Heather Buesseler, Dr. Liz Grant, and Dr. Corinne Reid, we explored the role of compassion in the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, and learned that the SDG’s were motivated by a compassionate desire to end global human suffering across a variety of sectors. This week we’re back with these four researchers, as they offer more personal insight about what draws them to study the science of compassion at the heart of systems. This week the researchers’ objective is to encourage all of us to think about where we can make greater space for compassion in our own lives.
