Tali Discusses “Maturing Global Consciousness” in New Podcast

Talimka Yordanova, the CEO of the Global Citizen Forum, joined Zeit Geist 19 Curated Podcast to who discuss the concept of interconnectedness, the consequences of interrupted travelling access and the radical idea of a Global Governance.

Where do we locate ourselves within the ‘local’ environment?And can one be truly a Global Citizen?
