Episode Details

"To build more complex models we need all those professions that have something to do with cities and collaborative."

Are you interested in cities without cars? What do you think about redefining transport as moving AND staying? How can we improve our public spaces?

Interview with Lior Steinberg, urban planner and co-founder of Humankind. We will talk about his vision for the future of cities, active transportation, car-free cities, public spaces, good urban examples, and many more.

Lior Steinberg is an urban planner and co-founder of Humankind, a multidisciplinary collective accelerating the transition towards urban happiness for all. He helps cities to look beyond functionality and to plan urban spaces that make people smile. All the projects Lior participates in have one thing in common: they create people-oriented cities. Being a Jane Jacobs’ enthusiast and a fan of great public spaces, he is keen on making cities better with an emphasis on local, innovative interventions and on including residents in urban planning.
