Diverse Dialogues The Podcast puts people at the centre of conversations about place, power, and who really gets to shape our cities. Through honest dialogue and bold perspectives, the podcast explores how we can build better, fairer futures. Rooted in real-world practice and grounded in lived experience, the podcast responds to a continued lack of physical spaces and platforms that truly centre diverse voices. Each episode brings together changemakers from across the built environment, designers, developers, policymakers, and community leaders, to reflect on inclusive practice, systemic change, and the future of our cities.
This podcast is for anyone invested in the challenge of creating inclusive, sustainable, and socially just places. Whether you're a developer, commissioner, architect, student, or activist, you'll find real insight and tangible takeaways. Hosted by Kuljeet Sibia, an architect and urban strategist with deep experience across sectors, the podcast explores how design quality, equity, and lived experience intersect in the way we shape and deliver the built environment.
If you care about people, place, and power, and want to rethink how development can serve the many, not just the few, Diverse Dialogues is for you.

In the third episode of our mini-series, Pedro Gil brings a powerful perspective, not just on the Waterden Green project, but as someone whose lived experience actively informs how he designs with, not just for, communities. We dive into how Studio Gil and the multidisciplinary design team collaborated with young women and girls to co-create a more people-centric, inclusive space, and we reflect on the importance of equity, opportunity, and representation, both in the communities we participate with and in architectural practice itself.
