Episode 30 - The Man Behind the Podcast: Who is Scott Leckie?

By Brian Gorlick

This episode is a little different. The tables are turned on Scott Leckie, who this time will be the interviewee. Guest host Brian Gorlick, an old friend, international jurist and university instructor and former UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR) official, will be asking the questions. From his early days running track in Southern California and Oregon, to establishing and leading not-for-profit NGOs working on international housing rights and evictions, and forced displacement and climate change, Scott shares details of his globe-trotting journey, work and vision as a human rights expert, activist, writer, lecturer, teacher and thinker.

As the founder of Oneness World, Scott remains a unique voice who takes his work to promote and protect human rights and world citizenship and how to save the planet, very seriously. But he does so - always - with a jolly mind and sense of humour. This Grateful Dead aficionado and international human rights lawyer and Director and Founder of Displacement Solutions (www.displacementsolutions.org) is on a quest to change your mind. Especially those in positions of power. To ensure the commonality and potential of the global human community and Mother Earth can live in sustainable peace and harmony for generations to come. Sounds lofty and idealistic and kind of interesting? It is. Tune in!
