In this episode of the Ecogradia Podcast, Nirmal Kishnani speaks with Paul Finch, the founder and programme director of the World Architecture Festival (WAF). Paul is an advocate, an analyst, and a tastemaker, able to offer insights into the past and, at the same time, move the needle on what’s to come.

WAF is an annual gathering where architects and industry experts from around the world convene to celebrate good design. Over the years, projects and ideas presented here have become a reflection of the profession’s self-image and priorities.
