#About the event
Duration: 60 minutes
What if our urban spaces, our cities were reshaped and reimagined through an Indigenous lens? How would life change? Would capitalism be at the centre of it all or would a values-based system shape the built environment creating a healthier, happier society? Join Indigenous urban designer, planner and writer, Timmah Ball who will be speaking with Māori architect and designer Jade Kake, as they share their ideas on the power of decolonisation by design.
Timmah Ball in conversation with Jade Kake
Content will be available to watch until June 30th, 2022.
