In the first episode of Kiwi Leaders by Kiwi Leadership Network USA, we speak with Skye Duncan, the Director of the Global Designing Cities Initiative at National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO).  Skye shares her journey, which starts in Papua New Guinea then leads to Dunedin, Wellington and ultimately to New York City where she lives today. Skye has more than 15 years of experience in architecture, urban design, and city planning and was part of NYC’s major redesign under Mayor Bloomberg to make it a more sustainable, resilient, livable, and healthy city. Today, Skye is the Director of the Global Designing Cities Initiative at National Association of City Transportation Officials (NACTO) and is working with governments around the world to help them redesign their city streets to become safer and more sustainable. São Paulo and Fortaleza in Brazil, Bogotá in Columbia, Mumbai in India, and Addis Ababa in Ethiopia are just some of the major cities around the world that Skye and her team has helped redesign.

Kiwi Leaders - Skye Duncan, Director of the Global Designing Cities Initiative at NACTO - Ep. 1

This week Oliver interviews Skye Duncan, a fellow Kiwi who has gone on to lead the Global Designing Cities Initiative at the National Association of City Transportation Officials. Skye is a wealth of knowledge about how infrastructure and space allocation decisions get made on streets around the world, and how micromobility can impacts those habitats to achieve transport outcomes. It was a great conversation - they both really enjoyed this conversation and hope you do too.Specifically they dig into: * Skye’s background and journey from New Zealand, via Columbia and working with Mayor Bloomberg to heading the Global Designing Cities Initiative at NACTO. * What the Global Design Guide for Cities is trying to achieve.* What micromobility/electric bikes/scooters offer to cities around the world, and how this intersects with he growth in urban populations that we’re seeing.* Why the problem of parking, and parking entitlement, are such a big issue. * What micromobility operators should be thinking about when talking to city planners and contextualising micromobility in the transport mix. * how Skye encourages advocates of new micromobility vehicles to discuss them and their infrastructure.
