The Most Important Question

Introducing HERO, from Foreign Policy


Listen Later

This week, Quinn is proud to share a new favorite podcast: “The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women (HERO).” 

Could empowering women in the workplace be the simplest way to boost the global economy? In a word: “yes,” but how do we get there? 

“The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women” is a new limited series podcast from Foreign Policy. Supported by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, the show is about women around the world who are shaking up the status quo in surprising ways. 

And we're going to air their first episode here, which is about an innovative approach to franchising affordable childcare centers and how it’s changing the lives of low-income mothers and daycare owners in Kenya.

The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women debuts new episodes on Tuesdays. Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
