    The pandemic has opened a door to a new era: What we've learned from our Reshaped podcasts. Neil Deely, Co-Founder and Partner, architects and urban planners Metropolitan Workshop

    Our speakers in Reshaped are bursting with ideas to fix what's wrong about the way we live, starkly revealed by the pandemic. It kicked down the door to the future and we see clearly what we must do to have more equitable, enjoyable lives. Our survival instincts have been roused. We can use that energy to save the planet, create the homes and places we need, invent new ways of working, shopping and enjoying ourselves. The best lever we have to make those changes happen is the built environment.

  2. Ireland at a crossroads: Finding directions for future housing policy. Michelle Norris, Professor of Social Policy, University College Dublin. She is also Chair of the Housing Finance Agency and a board member of the Land Development Agency

    Ireland at a crossroads: Finding directions for future housing policy. Michelle Norris, Professor of Social Policy, University College Dublin. She is also Chair of the Housing Finance Agency and a board member of the Land Development Agency

    The difference between Ireland's post-war provision of social housing and today is stark. Especially when compared to that of other EU countries. Equally stark is the need for a rethink in housing policy. Investment in Irish social housing needs to be kept within the system and not allowed to drain away into the private sector. Or future generations will once again have to replace it. The hole in Ireland's social housing bucket needs fixing, argues Professor Michelle Norris.

  3. For better for worse: How will the pandemic reshape our towns and cities? Peter Bishop, Professor in Urban Design at the Bartlett School of Architecture, Faculty of the Built Environment, University College London

    For better for worse: How will the pandemic reshape our towns and cities? Peter Bishop, Professor in Urban Design at the Bartlett School of Architecture, Faculty of the Built Environment, University College London

    Pandemics, disasters, recessions tend not to re-set things, but they do amplify pre-existing trends. This is what Peter Bishop, a leading planning academic, predicts will happen. Tech will keep driving globalisation as economic activity is separated from geography. We will return to cities, but some workers may be forced to work in isolation. We will 'recalibrate' how we use cities, but they are robust enough to assimilate changes. Maybe in future we'll value quality over quantity rather more.

  4. Dublin's fairer city: Saving the city centre after Covid. Suzanne O'Connell, Landscape Architect, Parks Landscape Biodiversity Services, Dublin City Council and Co-Founder, The Decorators, London-based multi-disciplinary design collective

    Dublin's fairer city: Saving the city centre after Covid. Suzanne O'Connell, Landscape Architect, Parks Landscape Biodiversity Services, Dublin City Council and Co-Founder, The Decorators, London-based multi-disciplinary design collective

    Who is Dublin designed for? A question that needs answering, with up to 70% fewer people venturing into the centre in Lockdown. The plight of the homeless and inequalities in housing and access to amenity were laid bare. The absence of cars however was 'quite wonderful' says Suzanne O'Connell. Can the centre be redesigned with more people living there, for whom new intimate spaces could be created and greater priority given to pedestrians? Dubliners need a conversation that reveals the answers.

  5. Delivering what Irish people want: Morally viable policies. Gary Gannon, Social Democrat TD for Dublin Central

    Delivering what Irish people want: Morally viable policies. Gary Gannon, Social Democrat TD for Dublin Central

    Irish people are less conservative than their politicians who need to catch up with this shift, argues Gary Gannon. Public opinion recently forced changes to abortion laws for example. The pandemic has revealed a desire for the state to create new homes, because the market isn't providing, while poorer citizens have borne the brunt of Covid in cramped conditions. And people want more priority over cars, especially in Dublin. The Republic needs more 'morally viable' policies, he suggests.

  6. Planning the future: Issues for architects after Covid, Simon Allford, Co-Founder of architects AHMM and RIBA President-Elect

    Planning the future: Issues for architects after Covid, Simon Allford, Co-Founder of architects AHMM and RIBA President-Elect

    The next RIBA President thinks mooted changes to the planning system offer opportunities for architects and that the system needs to be simpler, less exclusive and less expensive. Covid has usefully accelerated the carbon agenda, increased flexible working, and made us want more space at home; all things that need fresh design solutions. Architects will also have to meet challenges arising from Grenfell; not least how they maintain the integrity of their designs and how buildings are procured.

    Walking back to happiness: Is the future of place pedestrian? Peter Freeman, Co-Founder of developer Argent and Chair of Homes England

    The pandemic has shown we can survive without commuting to shops or offices. It has revealed we can redistribute economic opportunity using technology. We can restore the pride and purpose of towns all over the UK. An opportunity local politicians, employers and property owners should seize now technology has aligned the business and social case for keeping towns vibrant. We must build tight-knit communities with amenities we can walk to, because that way happiness lies, Peter Freeman argues.

    Addressing Dublin's housing crisis: Creating a more sustainable community, Jude Byrne, developer, CEO and founder of Ardú Project Developments

    Dubliners made the most of 'empty road time' during the pandemic, walking and cycling while working from home. More problematic was the 'exodus' of residents from the centre for greener pastures. Dublin's historic housing stock struggles to meet today's needs, argues Jude Byrne, and a shift in policy to increase Dublin's supply of affordable land on which to develop new homes to buy and to rent would enable more of the city's workers to put down roots and sustain the city's famous streets.
