002 The role of the community in creating sustainable and inclusive places - with Max Farrell
In this episode, Max Farrell, founder of the LDN Collective, sits down with our host Tanisha Raffiuddin to dive into the powerful role communities play in shaping sustainable, resilient, and inclusive urban spaces.
Max explains why understanding the needs, dreams, and challenges of local residents is crucial for successful urban design. He highlights why it is important to bring them into the conversation early on right from the briefing stage, and include them as a part of the design team along the way as part of a bottom-up approach to urban planning and development.
He also highlights how housing should be considered critical infrastructure that sits at the heart of social issues, from education to health and why we collectively as an industry and the government should double down on addressing.
Do not miss this engaging conversation on how putting communities first is the key to building better, more inclusive places.
