This special episode was recorded LIVE in Wellington, NZ.
Join Elizabeth as she speaks with Kamal Kishore, the Special Representative of the United Nations Secretary-General for Disaster Risk Reduction and Head of the United Nations Office for Disaster Risk Reduction (UNDRR), based in Geneva.
Kamal shares his experiences, from growing up in Delhi, to what drew him to disaster risk reduction, and his work around the world. They discuss how everything is interconnected, the importance of protecting our curiosity, and how most disasters are really crime scenes.
We hear Kamal’s leadership advice for future generations, his mindful reflections on societal resilience, and consider the only question that truly matters in this work we do: “How will it touch people’s lives?”
This episode enlightens and inspires. Enjoy!
