このコンテンツについて

In 2019, The European Union launched its “European Green Deal”, aiming to make Europe carbon neutral by 2050. We all know the transition to a carbon neutral economy is urgent, but will it be fair? Past transitions have always produced winners and losers, with the losing groups often facing unemployment and poverty, with dire consequences for social cohesion and social justice. In the case of climate change and the urgent transition to sustainability, not having a transition will make us all losers, but this does not mean we should not try to avoid or minimise the negative impacts of the transition on vulnerable groups. It is all about the fair distribution of the benefits, but also the burdens of our human association.


Therefore, an essential dimension of the European Green Deal is the concept of “just transition”, that is, a transition to a carbon-neutral economy that is fair and inclusive to all, “leaving no one behind”. Sustainable, fair, and inclusive urbanisation plays a key role in this endeavour. With those ideas in mind, we organised a series of online events and courses that address planning and designing cities and communities for the just transition by bringing together expertise from spatial planning, urban sustainability and resilience, resilience engineering, ethics of resilience and multi-actor systems. We want to discuss the values in socio-technical transitions and urbanisation, namely issues connected to distributive, procedural and restorative spatial justice, as well as citizen participation, democracy and sustainability, understood in its three essential dimensions: social, economic, and environmental sustainability. In doing so, we wish to address the interactions between design and values with an emphasis on operationalising spatial justice through inclusive vision making. And by using societal conflicts stemming from the transition as springboards to dialogue.


The idea of this podcast is to discuss and exchange ideas with academics, practitioners, and students of the built environment to plan and design for the just transition, with a robust understanding of the entanglement between spatial justice and sustainability.


The DUTY OF CARE podcast is produced by Roberto Rocco and Hugo Lopez. This podcast is sponsored by the Delft Design for Values Platform, the TU Delft platform discussing values for engineering and design.

  • Making Space for Care: Reflections from the BK Feminist Week
    2025/06/26

    What does it mean to build a system of care inside spaces not built for it? In this episode, we had a conversation with Irene Luque Martin, Emmelot Linssen, Megha Sahu, Jonne van Bunningen and Isabella Jaramillo, five voices from within the university reflecting on the making of the Feminist Week and other actions as an experiment in horizontal leadership, collective organising, and creating care and safe spaces. The episode explores care as a radical practice, the friction of institutional life, and the power of doing things differently together, and highlight key takeaways from the event’s impact so that you can also take it further wherever it is your sphere of action.


    This episode is dedicated to the BK Feminist Week, an event held between the 3rd and the 7th of March 2025 at TU Delft. The week was planned with lectures, workshops, and events to generate discussions, and the assembly's internal events to give space for the organisational team and “the village” to discuss ways of organising for the near future. The theme of the week this year was called Pasts, Present and Futures as a way to understand the plurality of stories from the past, to converge all together in the present at the faculty, but also to build desires and ideas for the future.

  • Vanesa Castán Broto on "The Twin Challenges of Climate Action and Rapid Urbanisation"
    2025/03/22
    On this episode, we have Professor Vanesa Castan Broto from the University of Sheffield in the UK. Vanesa is a scholar on the governance of global environmental change in the urbanisation age. Her previous books include An Urban Politics of Climate Change and the edited collection Participatory Planning for Climate Compatible Development in Maputo. Both are unmissable books! She was also a contributing author to UN-Habitat's 2016 World Cities Report. In 2016, she received the Philip Leverhulme Prize for contributions to Geography. In 2013, she received a United Nations Award for Lighthouse Activities that contribute to fighting climate change with a focus on the urban poor. Vanesa’s research focuses on the governance of global environmental change in the urbanization age. She focuses on three interrelated themes: 1) the governance of climate change in urban areas, 2) urbanization and the dynamics of energy transitions, and 3) barriers to the implementation of climate change action.

  • Just City in Kenia: a conversation with Titus Kaloki
    2023/11/29

    Roberto Rocco and Hugo Lopez interview Titus Kaloki on addressing spatial justice through inclusive urban planning. The episode has three main topics: (1) Smart City vs Just City, (2) The idea of transformative change-making, and (3) the work for a socially just public transport.


    Titus Kaloki is Programme Coordinator at FES _the Friedrich Ebert Stitftung for Social Democracy_ Kenya Office, where he leads the Just City programme, which engages the concept of a social and inclusive just city to facilitate innovative discussions among political decision makers, civil society representatives and others on issues such as affordable housing, fair and clean public transport, and meaningful civic engagement in urban spaces.


    FES is the oldest political foundation in Germany with a rich tradition in social democracy dating back to its birth in 1925. The foundation owes its formation and its mission to the political legacy of its namesake Friedrich Ebert, the first democratically elected German President. The work of FES focuses on the core ideas and values of social democracy – freedom, justice and solidarity. FES is a non-profit institution that organises their work autonomously and independently.
