Local Experts, Global Solutions

MORGAN STANLEY
About this episode

In our final episode of this season, we explore the often overlooked potential of Indigenous knowledge and local expertise. Harish Hande, CEO of the SELCO Foundation, explains how listening to and collaborating with his clients in developing economies led to more effective solar energy solutions. In Alaska, Dune Lankard, Co-founder and President of The Native Conservancy, is leading a campaign to help indigenous communities build their own regenerative kelp farms and restore the marine ecosystem. In the Brazilian Amazon rainforest, Adriana Ramos works with indigenous communities to bring their traditional goods to the marketplace and stave off the pressures of deforestation and land development.
