This documentary follows Noreena Hertz, who as economist and activist, plays a central role in the fight against poverty. In Noreena's Agenda, she visits with global activists, such as U2 singer, Bono, Live 8 initiator, Bob Geldof, President Mkapa of Tanzania, the Finnish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Mr. Tuomijoa, and TNT CEO, Peter Bakker. In these meetings, she acts both as a mediator and a consultant, providing insight into the world of poverty eradication; where rockstars turn out to be politicians, where academics are celebrities, activists turn to negotiating and where the corporate world has a growing role in alleviating poverty.
