A World of Possibilities is edited and engineered to a highly professional standard to achieve a consistent quality, format, set of themes and style of questioning that are both informative and engaging. Analysts are interspersed with social innovators so listeners can grasp the full dimensions of the problem, the range of possible solutions, and pilot projects that are successfully addressing the challenge. Conversation is spiced by vibrant musical interludes. Interviews are structured so as to stand alone (making sense even if the listener hears no other program in the series) and still relate to one another.
