Episode notes

After an exam-induced break over the summer, the Humans of ID podcast is back! In this episode, host Nune Harutyunyan chats to fellow MSc student in Development Management, Becky Asselin. Becky speaks about the social enterprise she founded and runs, Everoot, which helps businesses get B-Corp certified, a recognition of performance, accountability, and transparency on factors including employee benefits, charitable giving and supply chains. Becky chats about how her MSc study has influenced her approach to her business, and vice-versa, her plans to focus more on emerging markets and the role the private sector has to play in development.
