F-World exists to spark a global conversation about fragility and resilience. F-World is the only podcast exploring fragility across all countries, not just those traditionally thought of as fragile and conflict-affected. We will discuss the forces of fragility wherever they emerge, from the Western world to West Africa and beyond. We aim to bring an awareness of the interconnections between people, events, and structures, and a recognition that their interplay is not always straightforward. We believe that when people better understand the forces shaping their lives, they can act and engage in society more effectively. Through our long- form interviews, we aim to make the concept of fragility accessible to the broadest audience by engaging meaningfully in conversations that usually take place only among a narrow set of experts. We believe that everyone benefits when experts talk about complex issues in ways that are rigorous, yet down to earth. Even more, we want to discover our guests’ personal stories – who they are, what they believe, and what drives them.
