Searching for Compromiso in Seville | Is Rafael Grossi Radioactive?

Global Citizen's Michael Sheldrick joins as our special guest

The major Financing for Development Conference wrapped up in Seville last week with the so-called Compromiso de Sevilla, which commits countries to accelerating efforts to fund the Sustainable Development Goals and support economic and social development in lower-income countries. In the first segment of this episode of To Save Us From Hell, we are joined by Michael Sheldrick, co-founder of Global Citizen, who explains what was accomplished at this major UN meeting — and what was left on the table.

Then, Anjali and Mark discuss the current predicament facing IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi as he tries to navigate the capricious sensitivities of Donald Trump following the U.S. bombing of Iran while simultaneously campaigning for UN Secretary General. Is his candidacy doomed?
