We return in our second episode with an examination of a research & innovation trend touching not only local level governance but all aspects of how we process information and make decisions; digitalisation. We are pleased to announce we’re joined by Martin Wainstein, Executive Director of the Open Earth Foundation, and Pooja Mahapatra, Global Lead of the Climate & Nature program at Fugro. Today’s guests join hosts Ben Jance and Cathy Oke in episode two of City Climate Innovation, special episodes of the ClimateTalks Podcast produced by GCoM. This installment continues the third series of special episodes of the University of Melbourne ClimateTalks Podcast series in partnership with GCoM. Turning to the key themes of the 2024 Innovate4Cities Conference, we’ll dive into the rapidly deepening world of digitalisation efforts to address city-level research & innovation demands in the face of climate change, because we can’t manage what we can’t measure.
The City Climate Innovation podcast series is produced by GCoM and the Melbourne Centre for Cities at the University of Melbourne. And this podcast is produced on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung People. We pay respect to Elders past, present and emerging.
Our theme music is by Music for a Warming World.
