The urgency of moving beyond binary and compromise | Clare Devaney | TEDxBrum

Tired of the binary between economic and social, Clare Devaney takes us on a journey of the '4th way' - a space that is human, inclusive and allows us to build a better future for all citizens. Clare Devaney is the Founder and Director of Citizen-i-Ltd - a platform for citizen-led innovation, impact and participatory research based in Manchester.
