About
Did you ever witness powerful things happen, and realize with dismay that no one other than those directly involved would ever benefit from the lessons learned? Meet The Problem Solvers takes this challenge head-on, through interviews which air live from the TV studio of Cambridge Community TV (CCTV). Host Judy Perlman invites guests who are dealing with a diversity of important, high-impact social issues for 27-minute interviews. Together they unpack a problem, issue or opportunity - examine and discuss progress and impact – and articulate what each of us, as newly-informed citizens of the world, can do that is of value in this area.
