Professor Sabina Alkire directs the Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative at the University of Oxford. Sabina has been involved in developing methods of measuring multidimensional poverty and her work is used to address development issues in countries around the world.
Sabina is ordained in the Anglican Church. Belle and Justin explore how her Christian faith maps onto her work in engaging poverty and development and how we can re-enchant our capacity for justice and compassion in tackling global poverty.
