Jack Palmer-White is Senior Director at the Good Faith Partnership, an organisation that seeks to bridge some of the gaps between different sectors and, in so doing, find some innovative solutions for some of society’s more difficult problems.

Before this, Jack was the Anglican Communion’s Permanent Representative to the United Nations and senior advisor to the Archbishop of Canterbury on social and public affairs.

With over a decade of experience of working with charities, faith-based organisations, and social movements to help bring about change at the local, national and global level – Jack talks with Belle and Justin about the nature of politics and, untimely, how we can re-enchant what it means to love our neighbour.
