The richest and most influential leaders on the planet have kickstarted their annual World Economic Forum in Davos.
They began gathering this week.
And so did protesters.
They include a group of millionaires who want those who are attending to get serious about global wealth disparities.
Inside and sticking to tradition, the WEF's Founder and Executive Chairman - Klaus Schwab - gave the opening speech.
He said the world is stuck in a, quote 'crisis mindset'
But after Covid-19 and with the war in Ukraine ongoing, how can that be fixed?
And can the geopolitical challenges be overcome?
Presenter: Laura Kyle
Guests
Max Lawson, head of inequality policy and advocacy at Oxfam International.
Shirley Yu, senior practitioner fellow at Harvard Kennedy School and member of the Davos Expert Network.
Inderjeet Parmar, professor of International Politics at City University of London and author of 'Foundations of the American Century'.
