Architecture makes up a significant part of our lives - but many of our towns and cities fail to consider people’s needs. There is a need to adapt the spaces where we live and work, and how we act within them. But how? And how can we make sure the needs of both people and ecosystems are met?

We welcome Caroline Pidcock, an Australian architect and sustainable development advocate. With over 30 years of experience working in architecture, biophilia and regenerative design, she seeks to inspire us to create buildings and communities that consider the diverse needs of everyone - not just a few.

In this episode, we discuss how architecture and adaptation can help us achieve net zero emissions, how regenerative design can improve our lives, and the connections between feminism and sustainable design. Through understanding, we can build a thrivable future. (35 mins)
