Davos 2023 Day 3: global collaboration in the metaverse

On Day 3 at Davos 2023, we enter the metaverse to experience the Forum’s Global Collaboration Village, hear why inflation may have peaked, but prices haven’t, and speak to astronaut Matthias Maurer. Heba Aly, of the podcast Rethinking Humanitarianism, co-hosts.

We hear from recipients of the Crystal Awards Idris and Sabrina Elba.

We welcome into the Radio Davos booth astronaut Matthias Maurer.
