S1E3 - How Could We? Develop a 'Forest-to-City' value chain for affordable housing

Season 1 · Episode 3

Monday, December 12, 2022 • Duration 21:32

We launched a podcast to shine a light on climate crisis solutions making a real difference. In this third episode, we talk to urban specialist Tena Petrovic about the Bauhuette 4.0 project.

S1E1 - How Could We? Substitute fossil-based products with wood

Season 1 · Episode 1

Monday, November 14, 2022 • Duration 21:47

We launched a podcast to shine a light on climate crisis solutions making a real difference. Our first series focuses on land use, sustainable forestry, and the dilemma of using trees for timber.

Forests are an essential ally in the fight against climate change and biodiversity loss. They function as carbon sinks and help reduce the impacts of climate change. Unfortunately, forests suffer from many different pressures, including climate change and inactive forest management. With the current climate and cost-of-living crisis, it is more important than ever to take care of our public lands and use the tools available to help adapt to changing conditions.

But there is an inherent issue: by using trees to create forest products, aren’t we contributing further to the climate breakdown?

To answer this difficult question we talk to Daniel Zimmer, Director of Sustainable Land Use at EIT Climate-KIC. Daniel works on the Climate Smart Forest Economy Programme, a collaborative initiative from EIT Climate-KIC, the World Economic Forum, and the World Resources Institute. The programme looks at how to use wood and other forest products to substitute fossil fuel-based products while preserving forests’ carbon sink function, protecting biodiversity and support the creation of jobs.

This episode was presented by Anne-Sophie Garrigou and produced by Bárbara Mendes-Jorge.

S4E2 - How Could We? Restore the balance between donors and grantees

Season 4 · Episode 2

Tuesday, July 23, 2024 • Duration 41:15

Welcome back to season 4 of How Could We?.⁠

This season features insights from the Systems Innovation Learning Partnership (SILP), a collaboration between the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) and EIT Climate-KIC. SILP is designed to foster adaptive and innovative approaches to development work, emphasising trust-building, flexible funding mechanisms, and genuine local capacity building.

Our guests this week are Kanika Verma and Shrashtant Patara, from Development Alternatives, an organisation based in India that employs women e-rickshaw drivers in the state of Uttar Pradesh. Since its inception in 2018, the e-rickshaw project has developed a model for how low-carbon transportation can improve safety, empower women and reduce carbon emissions.

This episode underscores the importance of rethinking traditional funding mechanisms to foster inclusive and adaptive development projects, highlights the significant impact that small, flexible grants can have in driving systemic change and discusses how funds like SILP can transform the power dynamics between donors and grantees.

This episode was presented by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Anne-Sophie Garrigou⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠Solla Zophoniasdottir⁠⁠ and produced by⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Bárbara Mendes-Jorge⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

S3E3 - How Could We? Accelerate change with radical collaboration

Season 3 · Episode 3

Wednesday, November 29, 2023 • Duration 31:58

Inspired by conversations we had with experts about the climate emergency, in Season 3 of How Could We? we’re digging into three themes that occupy the minds of many people in the climate change community - ⁠Climate Narratives⁠, Confusion & Crisis and Radical Collaboration.

In this third episode - the season finale - we talk to Yiannis Chrysostomidis, Principal and Head of London Office at REOS Partners, a global organisation solving complex problems through the lens of radical collaboration. Yiannis' work supports changemakers to help shift the root causes of societal challenges, such as climate change.

In this episode, Yiannis discusses how talking about power can feel like a taboo subject, the importance of storytelling and understanding cultural differences when building coalitions, and how ‘network weavers’ - hidden actors who may not be considered typical power brokers - are key for enacting change.

Yiannis also outlines the key elements of REOS’ Radcal Climate Collaboration Guidebook and shares a few examples of some of the fascinating projects he’s worked on worldwide, including in Syria, South Africa and Mongolia.

This episode was presented by⁠⁠ Anne-Sophie Garrigou⁠⁠ & ⁠⁠Stephanie Klotz⁠⁠ and produced by⁠⁠ Bárbara Mendes-Jorge⁠⁠.
