In this fifth episode, we’re talking with Rafael Calado about FabLabs. Rafael is Programme and Operations Manager at FabLab Lisboa. An architect by trade, he also co-founded Repair Café Lisboa and BioHacking Group Lisboa 2017. Behind the mic our resident podcasters are joined by special guest Lucia Di Paola.
In this fourth episode, we are lucky to speak with Elisabeth Schober, Associate Professor at the Department of Social Anthropology at the University of Oslo. She is the Principle Investigator within the upcoming ‘Ports’ project, which will be funded by the European Research Council under the EU’s Horizon 2020 program.
In this third episode, we discuss the potential of textile recycling as part of a circular economy. We’re lucky to get to speak to Hilde van Duijn from EigenDraads, a Rotterdam based initiative that wants to take our non-reusable clothes and transform them into something new.
In this second episode, we discuss transition management as a governance approach. We travel to a real live urban arena in Rotterdam and meet Derk Loorbach director of UrbanA partner, DRIFT, and Professor of Socio-economic Transitions at the Faculty of Social Science, both at Erasmus University Rotterdam.
In this first episode, we discuss sustainability and justice in food and transport. To help us do so, we are speaking (and cycling around Budapest) with UrbanA fellow Orsolya Lazányi. She is a co-founder of Cargonomia, a Budapest-based community space for locally-produced food and cargo bike rentals.
