Welcome to Episode 16 of the podcast which has had a rebrand! We are now called the Social Justice Salon.

In this episode, we are discussing how we can eliminate nuclear weapons. Susi Synder of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons (ICAN) joins hostess Marianne Moore to discuss everything about their campaign and why, 80 years after they were first tested, nuclear weapons finally need to be stopped.

Susi is an expert on nuclear weapons, with over two decades experience working at the intersect between nuclear weapons and human rights and is the programme coordinator at the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons. She has contributed to a number of recent books, including Forbidden (2023), and A World Free from Nuclear Weapons (2020). Susi previously served as the Secretary General of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom at their Geneva secretariat and was named Hero of Las Vegas in 2001 for her work with Indigenous populations against US nuclear weapons development and nuclear waste dumping.

We discuss the history and impact of nuclear weapons, the mission of ICAN, and efforts to eliminate nuclear weapons globally. Susi shares her journey and gives us amazing insights into the various types of nuclear weapons, their global distribution, and the challenges and successes in the campaign against them.

Hello!

We're back and with a rebrand.!

Justice Studio Sessions is now the Social Justice Salon with me, Marianne Moore.

And I'm very very excited about Season 2 of this podcast.

We've got some really really cool guests and interesting topics.

We will have monopoly power with Nicholas Shaxson, public sexuality and how women navigate it, how we can eliminate nuclear weapons, and so much more.

I hope you will enjoy the new look Social Justice Salon.

Welcome to episode 15 of Justice Studio Sessions. In this concluding episode of series one, we have a frank discussion about what it means to run a consultancy focused on social justice. In this episode we discuss the challenges of running a small values based business in an industry that favours the big boys.

For this episode Marianne Moore, foundress of Justice Studio, is joined by Dr Irum Ali a social scientist and consultant who runs the organisation Inclusive Growth with her co-founder. Irum has nearly two decades of experience in both the academic and charity fields, working on a range of projects across research, policy and evaluation areas. Her current areas of interest lie in diversity, equity and inclusion in the charity sector, the impact of poor public service provision on marginalised communities and race equality policy.

In this no holds barred episode, Irum and Marianne talk about their personal experiences and frustrations running a consultancy committed to social justice and equity in a capitalist world. We hope the topics raised will resonate with other consultants and small business owners and can be a force for more community rather than competition amongst us.
