- Places & Travel
This is a pre-launch episode of Common Ground by Toposophy! To get us in the mood for our official podcast launch on March 29th and in light of World Water Day, we sat down with two titans of the global conversation about water: Henk Ovink, 'Ambassador for Water' and The Netherlands’ Special Envoy for International Water Affairs, and Mami Mizutori, Special Representative of the Secretary-General for Disaster Risk Reduction in the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction.
We talk about Rotterdam’s ingenious flood-prevention solutions, how Bangladesh is pioneering a new cyclone preparedness programme, why Rio’s favelas are planting trees as a natural barrier to floods - and how the pandemic has changed our approach to risk forever.
Common Ground is a podcast brought to you by the place making & marketing agency Toposophy.
Production: The Greek Podcast Project
