Sean Geobey: I teach social entrepreneurship and social innovation, viewing these as pathways towards the establishment of alternative sustainable social, ecological and economic systems. A more sustainable world will require us to bring a greater diversity of perspectives to decision-making and to work on a longer time horizon than most of our political and economic systems do today.
