EP11 The New Multilateralism: Rethinking Global Institutions for Development and Sustainability with Hugh Dugan and Daniel Wagner
from The No Nonsense Sustainability Podcast
This episode takes a clear look at the state of global cooperation. Many of the institutions that shape international policy were built more than 80 years ago and still operate as if the world hasn’t changed. We brought in two people who know the system from the inside to talk about what actually works and what keeps breaking down.Hugh Dugan served as a special advisor to the President of the United States and supported eleven US Ambassadors to the United Nations. Daniel Wagner published twelve books and more than seven hundred pieces on global risk and knows the international financial institutions better than most.This is not a ceremonial review of the UN or the IFIs. It’s a grounded conversation about why these institutions struggle to adapt, where they still add value, and what needs to shift for global cooperation to function in today’s world. If you want real talk from serious insiders, this one’s for you.
