Janis Birkeland

In this episode of Sense-Making in a Changing World it is my honour and delight to be speaking with a giant in the world of design, Professor Janis Birkeland.  Janis has dedicated her personal, professional and academic life to figuring out what is genuine ecological and social sustainability and how we can work towards it. She was drawn to exploring and reimagining the design of our cities, the places where we live and work to explore this question. She first became an architect and urban designer, then transferred into city planning. Later she became a lawyer to better understand the barriers to systems change. Janis originated the theory of Net-Positive Development and Design and is the author of many books - Positive Development, Design for Sustainability and more recently Net Positive Design and Sustainable Urban Development which includes an app ...as well as 100s of papers.  Janis has been a Professor of Architecture at QUT, Professor of Sustainable Architecture at the University of Auckland and is now an Honorary Professor at the University of Melbourne . Together we explore ways to rethink how to design human settlements for one-planet-living in ways that enhance not destroy the places they are in. ________________________________LEARN MORE ABOUT THE WORLD OF PERMACULTURE WITH MORAG GAMBLE Explore the permaculture films, articles, masterclasses and other resources on Our Permaculture Life Youtube channel &amp; blog.
