Professor Gina Ziervogel giving a talk

On 9 October, Ngā Ara Whetū co-hosted a seminar by Professor Gina Ziervogel from the University of Cape Town, titled, Understanding climate risk, intersectionality and the potential for Nature-based Solutions in low-income settlements in African cities. She shared insights from Tuwe Pamoja (“Let’s be together” in Swahili), a project working across four African cities to strengthen the capacities of city actors to plan equitable, climate-resilient nature-based solutions that centre the voices of marginalised residents in informal settlements.
