Hello and welcome to the final episode of season 1 of The Interchange Podcast.

Today’s guest is Prof. (Dr) Anusha Shah who is the 159th President of the Institution of Civil Engineers (ICE). She is only the 3rd female and the first person of colour to take on this high-profile role.

In this interview, we talked about:

• how we should all be taking a systems thinking and nature-based approach
• why we must accept the climate emergency and use every opportunity to address it
• the need for connections, understanding behavioural science and the psychology behind consumers and travel behaviour
• why engineers must be more empathetic and understand more about the communities they’re designing for.

The Interchange Podcast is produced in association with Arcadis and interviews leading changemakers and thinkers about how integrated transport infrastructure is the solution to achieving a more effective and decarbonised transport network.
