Listen "From heatwaves to city hall: Eleni Myrivili’s vision for climate-resilient cities"
Episode Synopsis
What does it take to make our cities liveable in a world that is rapidly heating?
In this first episode of Reimagining Government's new season, hosts Gabrielle Beran and Kandice Louis-Wilson speak with Eleni Myrivili, the UN's first Chief Heat Officer and former Deputy Mayor of Athens.
Eleni shares how extreme heat exposes deep inequalities, why climate action is inseparable from questions of power, and how centring justice and care can transform how we design and govern our cities.
This conversation sets the stage for a season spotlighting women and gender-diverse leaders reimagining climate governance from the ground up.
