From research and teaching to launching the Better Buying Institute, she’s led the change to center supplier voices and responsible purchasing in the pursuit of decent work. Now, as she steps away from day-to-day leadership and into a much-deserved retirement, Dr. Dickson reflects on what’s changed — and what still needs to be done.

Today, instead of a regular Source of Good episode, we're sharing one from another show we think you'll love. Sustainability Defined looks at what’s working to address the world’s most critical environmental and social challenges, by tackling one concept (and one bad joke) at a time. In this episode, hosts Cecilia Rios and Nethra Rajendran dive into the chocolate supply chain, which is just as complicated as those we talk about on Source of Good – and, similarly, not always sweet.
