  • Summary

  • In The Curio-city Collective podcast we have conversations with individuals who are already hard at work thinking and taking action on various issues within Indian cities. They tell us not only what the problems are but also share ways in which we – you and I – can do something about it. If you are interested in deepening your understanding of our homes – our cities – and how we can as individuals and collectives be part of the required change and make things better, then this is the podcast to follow!
