Episode notes

In this episode of Voices you will hear from Kenny Aderogba from Spaces for Change - a non profit organisation based in Lagos, Nigeria. Kenny talks with IHRB’s Annabel Short about how her organisation is improving the city’s built environment. Lagos is a megacity, with a population of 24 million. Two thirds of its inhabitants live in informal housing. Annabel discovers how Kenny’s work with Spaces for Change is supporting the voices of marginalised people to be heard when it comes to decision making that affects their built environments. They discuss the impact of climate change on Lagos and the importance of building sustainable housing that’s accessible to all.
