Dr Reshmaan Hussam teaches Harvard Business School students about social justice (and economics)
Muslims Doing Things

Description
Dr. Reshmaan Hussam went to MIT for undergrad and grad school to study economics. As a developmental economist, she found herself as Harvard Business School’s first (a pretty confident assumption) hijabi professor. TL;DR -- her goal is to ensure some of the world's future business leaders are well versed in some of the world's greatest injustices. And other stuff. She sits at the intersection of development, behavioral, and health economics.
Listen to Reshma talk about her journey, and how she found herself writing case studies for business school students about Rohingya.
