Putting People at the Center of Climate Policy

Last week, Rebecca sat down with some of the folks behind Next100—a think tank that's turning the traditional think tank model on its head, to create a public policy sector where those with the most at stake are driving the change they and their communities want to see. We at Off-Kilter enjoyed that conversation so much, we decided to turn it into a three-part series.  So, continuing last week's conversation about what it looks like to put people at the center of policy change in the area of antipoverty policy… for this week's pod, Rebecca sat down with two more Next 100 policy entrepreneurs—Dan Mathis and Diana Martinez Quintana—who are working to change how climate policy is made in the United States, at the intersections of housing policy, immigration, and racial justice.  And ICYMI: don't miss last week's episode, which kicked off Off-Kilter's series with The Next 100.

Their disparate impacts—and our disparate responses to them—are not" and follow him on Twitter @dmathis_ And learn more about Next100 in this video on how the organization is working to change how public policy is made by building a more inclusive policy sector
