This episode features Adriana Valdez Young, an urban design researcher and strategist based in New York City. Her perspectives on cities and how we live together seem particularly relevant in a time where our collective notions of private and public spaces have shifted. Where the global pandemic has meant that for the privileged who can perform their work remotely staying safe has been synonymous with staying home. 

How might we reimagine and co-create streets, spaces, and cities to help them fulfill their potential as the change machines Adriana knows they can be? How can we help people feel more included, empowered to transform their lives?
