This special series of Sarah Brown’s Better Angels podcast follows Tom Fletcher, diplomat and global education campaigner, as he travels from the Beqaa Valley to Silicon Valley to find out how we can learn the right things in the right way to thrive in the Digital Age. Tom asks everyone – from Prime Ministers to tech CEOs to movie stars and a classroom of 12-year olds – about the key lessons that made them who they are, what future generations need to take humanity forward, and how to unleash this opportunity?
