This Circular Life is a new podcast that spends time talking about subjects and to people with ethical, environmental change and social impact at their core. Join me, Melissa Bowden, for interesting conversations highlighting people who are making a positive impact on our planet and the people in it.
Episode 1 is an interview with Gyorgyi Galik, a London based innovation designer, design strategist and environmental advocate. She is currently finishing her PhD in Innovation Design Engineering from The School of Design at The Royal College of Art, London and is the Lead Advisor of the Cities Programme at the Design Council in London. She joins me to discuss what makes her world go round, her inner & wider circles and the social and economic impact of sustainable change as well as so much more.
Huge thanks to Gyorgyi for sharing her time and insights as well as parts of her personal journey. It was a real pleasure to talk to her and learn from her.
