"Trending Globally" Podcast
From the Nominator
"Trending Globally" is a biweekly podcast that explores some of the biggest policy challenges of our time with the help of the world’s leading experts. By drawing on the faculty and researchers at Brown University’s Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs to explore pressing global issues, the show provides unique angles and essential context to the headlines of the day.
We thought there would be a significant audience for analysis and commentary by our community of scholars, which is what initially led us to produce this podcast in-house.
Our small team (one full-time producer/host and one part-time producer) has created a show that broadcasts the work being done at our institute to thousands of listeners in over 40 countries around the world.
From the Judges
A high-quality podcast that has a focused strategy. Judges appreciated the thorough approach to their strategy—from topic selection to production and promotion.
