In this episode of the Urban Exchange Podcast, hosts Lauren Sorkin and Paul Wilson dive deep into the critical issue of extreme heat with Lenio Myrivili, Global Chief Heat Officer for UN-Habitat and the Atlantic Council. The conversation explores how rising temperatures are transforming urban experiences across the globe, from Athens to London, and the profound challenges cities face in managing increasingly intense heat waves. Myrivili shares her journey from being Athens' Chief Resilience Officer to her current global role, highlighting the dramatic transformation of urban heat challenges over the past decade. She reveals shocking statistics about global temperatures, including how 70 large cities already experience over 150 days per year of temperatures above 35 degrees Celsius. The podcast also delves into the physiological impacts of extreme heat, explaining how prolonged high temperatures can cause significant health risks, particularly for vulnerable populations. Myrivili emphasises that heat's impact is deeply localised, making it challenging to create universal measurement standards. A key theme is the importance of nature-based solutions, particularly urban trees and green spaces, which can help mitigate heat island effects. The discussion also touches on technological approaches like digital twins, with Myrivili advocating for focused, practical applications rather than comprehensive data collection. The episode highlights the growing recognition of cities' roles in addressing climate challenges, with urban leaders increasingly gaining platforms to share their experiences and solutions at global forums. Tune in for a sobering yet hopeful conversation, and understand how cities are confronting one of the most pressing climate challenges of our time, making this a must-listen for anyone interested in urban resilience and climate adaptation.

In this episode, Hannah MacInnes sits down with Shipra Narang Suri, a leading expert in sustainable urbanisation, urban resilience and Senior Policy Advisor to the Executive Director of UN-Habitat. She was the Chief of Urban Practices Branch at UN-Habitat until January 2024 when this episode was recorded. They explore the critical work UN-Habitat is doing to help cities around the world adapt to climate change, including building resilient housing and implementing innovative urban planning strategies. Shipra also shares her insights on how we can be proactive in creating cities that are not just resilient but truly thrive in the face of future challenges.

Le cylindre O'Neill est une structure conceptuelle d'habitat spatial proposée par le physicien Gerard K. O'Neill en 1978, dans son ouvrage The High Frontier: Human Colonies in Space. Il imaginait un avenir où l'humanité s'installerait dans des colonies spatiales autosuffisantes, situées en dehors de la Terre, notamment au point de Lagrange L5. Ce type d'habitat pourrait accueillir des millions de personnes et fournir un cadre de vie similaire à celui de notre planète.Structure et FonctionnementUn cylindre O'Neill se compose de deux immenses cylindres d'environ 30 kilomètres de long et 6 kilomètres de diamètre, tournant en sens inverse pour annuler tout effet de couple (ce qui empêcherait la structure de dériver). Cette rotation permettrait de générer une gravité artificielle par force centrifuge, recréant une pesanteur proche de celle de la Terre.L'intérieur de chaque cylindre est divisé en six bandes longitudinales :- Trois bandes terrestres, où la surface serait aménagée avec des villes, des forêts, des lacs et des infrastructures agricoles.- Trois fenêtres transparentes, faites de verre blindé et équipées de miroirs orientables qui réfléchiraient la lumière du Soleil dans l'habitat, permettant d'alterner entre jour et nuit.Les miroirs extérieurs joueraient aussi un rôle clé dans le contrôle thermique et la protection contre les radiations.Avantages et DéfisLe cylindre O'Neill offre plusieurs avantages :- Un environnement habitable, où la température, l'atmosphère et la gravité seraient ajustables.- Une autosuffisance alimentaire et énergétique, grâce à l'agriculture hydroponique et à l'énergie solaire.- Un espace immense, capable d'accueillir une population équivalente à une grande métropole.Cependant, sa construction poserait des défis majeurs, notamment :- L'extraction et le transport des matériaux, nécessitant l'exploitation de la Lune ou des astéroïdes.- La maîtrise de la rotation et de la stabilité structurelle sur le long terme.- La protection contre les météorites et le rayonnement cosmique.Un Rêve d'Avenir ?Bien qu'encore théorique, le concept du cylindre O'Neill a inspiré des œuvres de science-fiction, comme le film Interstellar et des animes comme Gundam. Avec l'essor du voyage spatial et des projets de colonisation martienne, certaines idées d'O'Neill pourraient un jour devenir réalité. Hébergé par Acast.

Are you interested in how to manage multiple disasters at once? Summary of the article titled Misfortunes never come singly. A holistic approach to urban resilience and sustainability challenges from 2023 by Cristina Serbanica and Daniela Luminita Constantin, published in the Cities journal. This is a great preparation to our next interview with Keygan Huckleberry in episode 282 talking about disaster management and resilience. Since we are investigating the future of cities, I thought it would be interesting to see the connection between urban resilience and sustainability. This article highlights the interplay between acute shocks, long-term stresses, and their implications for urban safety and inclusiveness. As the most important things, I would like to highlight 3 aspects: Global urban agendas must be adaptable to regional challenges, as different cities face varied combinations of shocks and stresses. Urban resilience focuses on immediate responses to shocks, while sustainability prioritizes long-term well-being and equity. The concepts of resilience and sustainability overlap in areas like safety and inclusiveness, which are crucial for resilient, sustainable cities. You can find the article through this link. Abstract: The United Nations' World Cities Report 2020 predicts that the world will continue to urbanize over the next decades, despite the pandemic experience, whose impact on urbanization trends is not clear at this point in time. By 2070, almost 60 % of the world population is projected to live in urban areas and be exposed to both chronic and emerging urban challenges (UN Habitat, 2022). Within this framework, “Make cities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable” appears as one of the most prominent Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (UNGA, 2015). The New Urban Agenda builds on the SDG 11 and affirms the global commitment to support the sustainable and resilient urban development (UNGA, 2017). At the same time, fostering resilient cities and investing in urban resilience remains high on the agenda of international organizations and global governance networks such as the UN Habitat (e.g. “City Resilience Profiling Programme”), the UN Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (e.g. “Making Cities Resilient” campaigns), the World Bank (e.g. “Cities Resilience Programme”), the OECD (e.g. “Resilient cities”), ICLEI-Local Governments for Sustainability (e.g. the “Resilient Cities” Programme), Cities Alliance (e.g. “Joint Work Programme on Resilient Cities”), ARUP and the Rockefeller Foundation (e.g. The 100 Resilient Cities (100 RC) Programme, City Resilience Index) etc. In the wake of Covid 19 pandemic, there is a growing consensus that cities offer unique opportunities to enhance resilience to the effects of pandemic, but also to achieving sustainable development (UN Habitat, 2021).

According to UN-Habitat, a global housing affordability crisis is underway, with 1.6 billion people currently in need of adequate, affordable homes. That number could rise to three billion in just a few years. Home prices in urban markets have reached "impossible" levels of unaffordability while temperatures continue to rise as a result of climate change. On this third episode of the Mongabay Explores podcast season on the circular economy — the effort to design goods to be less resource-intensive, from their manufacture to disposal and recycling — Louise Dorignon, a postdoctoral research fellow and housing circularity expert at RMIT University in Melbourne, details this housing reform plan to address sustainability in the most unaffordable housing market in the English-speaking world: Australia. Researchers at RMIT University in Melbourne have devised a framework for combatting this housing shortage, improving housing circularity, and reducing emissions from construction to help alleviate the housing sector's contributions to climate change. "Our goal was to find out how implementing a circular economy approach can lead to a more sustainable housing system. And we didn't want to juxtapose sustainability and circular economy as two different things. But instead, we wanted to see how they work together," Dorignon says. Listen to the first two episodes of Mongabay Explores the Circular Economy here and here. Mongabay Explores is a podcast series investigating some of the biggest environmental issues of our time, and the people working to solve them. This conversation is the third episode of the fifth season.

These walks, often overlooked in traditional mobility studies, highlight the value of experiencing a city on foot—uncovering hidden spaces and fostering a sense of connection with our surroundings. Through her work with La Reconquista Peatonal, Consuelo Araneda Díaz brings to light the walking experiences of Latin American women living in Berlin, emphasizing the unique perspective of walking as a way to engage with our communities. Our special guest, Consuelo Araneda Díaz, an architect and urban designer with a Master's Degree from the Technical University of Berlin, shares her insights on the potential of everyday walks to transform urban design, making our cities more inclusive and accessible for all.

DES  ⁠https://genderedcity.org/fem-des⁠⁠https://femurbanatlas.com⁠ Nourhan Bassam is a feminist urbanist and architect with a Ph.D. in Urban Design and Placemaking. She is the founder of The Gendered City, an initiative that began as a book and has grown into an organization dedicated to building gender-equal cities through feminist placemaking and active citizen participation. Nourhan also launched FEM.DES., the world's largest feminist design network, bringing together over 350 experts from more than 35 countries to support and advance gender-equitable urban environments. The Gendered City collaborates with numerous global partners, including UN-Habitat's HERCITY, and primarily focuses on social justice in the built environment through its parent organization, GamingX. As a research professor, Nourhan mentors Master's students in placemaking and feminist spatialities, guiding the next generation of urban thinkers. Her book, The Gendered City explores the challenges women face in urban spaces and has been sold in over 23 countries around the world. Her upcoming book, Feminist Spatialities, will analyze 50 feminist projects in cities, further expanding the conversation on inclusive urban design." The Gendered City Book How Cities Keep Failing WomenThe Gendered City book aims to illuminate the intricate richness and complexities of urban lives by exploring the experiences of diverse groups, encompassing women, men, and various identities. Through this exploration, we seek to understand the interconnectedness between urban environments and gendered experiences. Employing an intersectional feminist lens to analyze the physical structures of the built environment. Dismantling gender as a rigid category and examining how it influences our interactions and encounters with the world. Gender is not an immutable or homogeneous construct; it intersects with other social categories such as race, class, and sexuality. This intersectionality reveals how these diverse identity dimensions overlap and intersect, resulting in unique experiences of oppression and privilege for individuals.Drawing inspiration from those who have paved the way, we aspire to a world where individuals can thrive irrespective of their gender, sexuality, ethnicity, or background. We envision cities as places of hope, potential, transformation, and innovation. In collaboration with Placemaking Week Europe, 2024, Rotterdam.

Last month was the hottest June ever experienced in Athens, at least since records began over 150 years ago. In fact, eight of the hottest 10 Junes ever recorded in Athens were during the last 20 years and four of those were in the last decade alone. This is having clear consequences for the city and its inhabitants, as rising temperatures and protracted heatwaves, beyond impacting daily life, also pose a number of health risks. Eleni Myrivili, the UN Chief Heat Officer working with UN-Habitat and the Arsht Rock Resilience Center at the Atlantic Council and the former Chief Resilience Officer and deputy mayor for Athens, joins Thanos Davelis to break down the challenges Athens is up against, explore the efforts to build urban heat resilience, and look at whether Athens can serve as an example to other cities.You can read the articles we discuss on our podcast here:Athens sizzles with hottest June on recordBuilding Urban Heat Resilience: The Athens Case StudyHellenic Air Force receives 20th upgraded F-16 ViperSyrians attack Turkish troops after anti-migrant riotsProtests and arrests as anti-Syrian riots rock TurkeyWith Fists and Knives, Mobs Attack Syrian Refugees in Turkey

In this episode we try to answer the question of what makes a City? and what are the characteristics taken into account when defining a City based on the two definitions chosen by UN-Habitat.

According to the United Nations Population Fund's 2009 report, 2008 was the first time in history that over 50 percent of the world's population resided in cities instead of rural areas. Because of the different ways countries define cities, others date the qualitative shift to as recently as 2021. Regardless, across the spectrum it's undisputed we now live in an “urban age” and, as such, transforming the relationship between cities and the natural world is essential for climate change adaptation and mitigation. The international capitalist institutions like the World Bank that are increasingly taking up the issue of cities and climate change can't explain the various factors behind urbanization nor can they pose real solutions to its impact on or relationship to climate catastrophes. Cities consume 78 percent of the world's energy resources and produce 60 percent of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to a 2022 UN Habitat report. Under the capitalist model, urban planning lacks a holistic approach, leaving human well being and ecological needs as an afterthought, which will continue to have a degenerative effect on the environment and global climate. Marx and Engels lived during a time in which capitalist urbanization was a nascent phenomenon concentrated mostly in some European cities, like Manchester, the English city about which Friedrich Engels wrote his first and classic book, The Condition of the Working Class in England. Engels demonstrates how the “great town” of Manchester, the first major manufacturing center in England, was great only for capitalist profits. The concentration of capital required for the invention and adoption of machinery outproduced independent handicraft and agricultural production, forcing both into the industrial proletariat of the city. There, they had to work for the capitalists, whose wages were so low they could, if they were lucky, live in overcrowded houses and neighborhoods just outside the city limits. Because the city was produced chaotically for capitalist profits, no attention was given to accompanying environmental impacts. As the masses were driven from their land into the urban factories, the ancestral ties to the land and ecological knowledge of how to live sustainably on that land was lost.

"Žiť v Afrike je pre dievčatá veľmi náročné a to nehovorím iba o krajinách, kde prebieha (občianska) vojna. Možno sa teraz viac hovorí o Afganistane, ale keď to porovnám s Afrikou, sú mnohé krajiny - ako Sudán, Južný Sudán alebo Somálsko - kde ženy neznamenajú absolútne nič. Každý deň je pre nich bojom o prežitie," hovorí Andrea Mlynárová, manželka skúseného slovenského diplomata Michala Mlynára. Ten len nedávno opustil pozíciu slovenského veľvyslanca pri OSN v New Yorku po tom, ako sa stal zástupcom výkonnej riaditeľky Programu OSN pre ľudské sídla a trvalo udržateľný rozvoj UN Habitat v kenskom Nairobi. Andrea sa tak sťahuje z New Yorku do Afriky - no nielen ako diplomatická manželka, ale predovšetkým ako učiteľka matematiky, ktorú vyučovala na Slovensku, v New Yorku a bude ju učiť aj v africkej Keni.

Heatwaves are growing in frequency and intensity around the world due to climate change. Extreme heat is now gripping three continents - Europe, the US and Asia - and there is more to come. Temperatures are breaking records, driving wildfires and prompting serious health warnings and evacuations. Europe may see its hottest week ever. Islands off the South of Italy - Sicily and Sardinia - recorded temperatures of 48 degrees Celsius according to the European Space Agency and at least 2,000 people have been evacuated due to wildfires on the Spanish island of La Palma. In the US, a third of Americans are under extreme heat advisories. Japan has issued heatstroke warnings for millions. Meanwhile South Korea's president has vowed to “completely overhaul” the country's approach to extreme weather from climate change as at least 40 people die from flooding and landslides. So, what does extreme heat do to our bodies? How can countries and people adapt now - and in the future - to better deal with a hotter world? And are governments doing enough to deal with the effects of global warming and, if not, what more needs to be done?

Episode Notes This episode is about the tension between water as a source of profit and water as a basic human right. After all, if clean water has to be profitable, some people, lots of people, are sure to lose out. As the director of UN Habitat, Maimounah Mohd Sharif is dedicated to helping the global south get access to clean water and sanitation. Do we need big business to build the big infrastructure that brings clean water to everyone? Thad Pawlowski of Columbia University and ‘constructive activist' Murtah Shannon of Both Ends say: absolutely not. This show is about climate justice. That's why this fifth episode of Water Talks is called: Too Unequal.

Continuing on the theme of Architecture and the community, I interviewed Olamide Udoma-Ejorh who is the Director at the Lagos Urban Development Initiative, an urban activist, researcher, filmmaker, and writer. She is currently involved in governance and social issues within the urban environment of Lagos and is an advocate for sustainable transportation and social engagement within urban spaces with a particular focus on gender. She focuses on transport management, slum upgrading, and housing rights in urbanizing African cities. She consulted with UN-Habitat on the Nigerian projects for the Global Future Cities Program. In the last 10 years she has managed and coordinated projects in the UK, South Africa, and Nigeria, working with a variety of clients to ensure that urban planning is participatory from inception to maintenance. Her strengths lie in Urban Infrastructure Management, Project Management, and Communications. In this conversation, we dive into her experience with designing for the community, the different players that work together to make a project successful and she tells us her take on the future of urban development in Lagos, Nigeria. Lets get into it! Link to LUDI website: https://ludi.org.ng/

Le logement décent est un droit international relatif aux droits humains. Pourtant, plus d'1 milliard de personnes vivent dans des habitations dangereuses ou indignes comme des bidonvilles ou des logements surpeuplés. Des conditions de vie qui mettent en péril la vie ou la santé des mal logés. En outre, des millions de personnes sont expulsées ou menacées d'expulsion de leur logement par la force chaque année. Alors que l'électricité est le moteur de notre mode de vie, près de 750 millions de personnes vivent coupées de tout courant. Beaucoup vivent aussi sans accès à l'eau potable et aux toilettes. Comment garantir à tous un toit décent ? Faut-il détruire ou réhabiliter les quartiers précaires ? Comment acheminer les services essentiels dans des villes non planifiées ?  (Cette émission est une rediffusion du 15/11/2022) Avec :  - Frédéric Saliez, chargé de programme pour ONU Habitat - Sylvain Joachim, responsable équipe projet au sein de la Division urbaine à l'AFD, Agence française de développement qui finance et accompagne des projets dans 115 pays - Thierry Paquot, philosophe de l'Urbain, auteur de « Mesure et démesure des villes », aux éditions CNRS  et « Les bidonvilles », aux éditions La Découverte.   Et un entretien de Victor Mauriat, correspond au Maroc, sur la réhabilitation des quartiers précaires et les logements sociaux confrontés à l'inflation des prix de la construction.   Programmation musicale :  ► Il est ou le SAV - Suzane (feat.
