Sam Daley-Harris on Transformational Advocacy & Reclaiming Our Democracy

Welcome back to the SHECAN Podcast for our WECAN-Series as we sit down with Sam Daley-Harris, veteran activist, author, and founder of several social-impact organisations, including RESULTS, the Microcredit Summit Campaign, and Civic Courage. With nearly five decades of experience in advocacy, Sam shares his powerful insights on how ordinary citizens can reclaim democracy and drive meaningful change. In this inspiring conversation, Sam shares his journey from a music teacher and percussionist in the Miami Philharmonic to launching RESULTS in 1980—a grassroots lobby designed to create political will to end hunger. The evolution of his book Reclaiming Our Democracy: Every Citizen’s Guide to Transformational Advocacy (2024 revised edition), packed with real-world examples and practical tools to empower citizens. The concept of transformational advocacy—how stepping up to meet your own capacity can reshape who you are, even as you shape the issues you care about. Powerful stories of ordinary folks—from meeting with members of Congress to saving millions of lives through global health and poverty campaigns—who found their voice and made a real difference.
