104: Camila Ronderos Survival of the Kindest

104 - This week’s Survival of the Kindest podcast features Camila Ronderos. Camila learnt about the importance of community from  her father, who was a doctor visiting people in rural Colombia. He would visit people in the fields and in their homes, making sure that he took care of them in the widest sense. She started her studies in architecture but changed to anthropology as she felt architecture often missed the point, not designing buildings for people to live in taking their perspective to heart. This led her to a masters degree and studying for a PhD in New York. Along the way, she got side tracked into a dream job working for a non profit organisation back in Colombia. This led her to her current work in the healthcare setting for the Keralty Foundation.
Camila has the most incredible understanding of participatory processes, which began with her studies of participatory urban development.
