This episode brings you the highlights from a special event from UCL marking 10 years since the Paris Agreement.  Hear how it continues to influence policy, markets, and public debate — and what lies ahead as the world confronts climate change in an era of geopolitical turbulence.  

Host Professor Mark Maslin (UCL Earth System Science) joins forces with Professor Lisa Vanhala (UCL Political Science) from a live event co‑hosted with the French Embassy in London, UCL’s European Institute, UCL Faculty of Laws and UCL's Grand Challenge for the Climate Crisis.  

The event brought together diplomats, policymakers, and academics to reflect on the legacy, challenges, and future of the Paris Agreement and their hopes for COP30 in Brazil.  Essential listening for anyone interested in climate governance, international cooperation, and the future of multilateralism.

From the optimism of 2015 to the realities of climate governance in 2025, we bring you highlights and hope from the panel who explore whether multilateralism can survive political fragmentation, how markets are reshaping the clean energy transition, and how solidarity across nations is so challenging.

Panel chaired by Professor Eloise Scotford (Dean of UCL Faculty of Laws), featuring:

•            Dan Bradley (UK Mission to the EU) 
•            Adam Berman (Energy UK) 
•            Professor Jean Jouzel (CEA, Academy of Science) 
•            Dr Pedro Schilling de Carvalho (UCL) 
•            Professor Lisa Vanhala (UCL)

Season 5, Episode 11 - Paris +10 Live event: reflections on the impact of the Paris Agreement

In this episode, host Ethne James Souch speaks with Professor Mette Louise Berg, Dr Judith Spirig, Faith Nyamakanga, and Nelson Gomez about the lived realities of asylum housing in the UK, and the wider political and policy landscape that shapes them. Drawing from a Grand Challenges-funded participatory research project focused on asylum dispersal areas in Yorkshire, the episode explores how narratives of "deservingness," local resource pressures, and privatised housing systems intersect with the everyday experiences of people seeking sanctuary in the UK. With co-researchers Faith and Nelson sharing their experiences navigating the asylum process and housing insecurity, this conversation amplifies voices that are often left out of public discourse while also offering concrete insights into how policy and public attitudes might change.

Season 2, Episode 5 - Supporting Neurodiverse Children, featuring Dr Emily Midouhas

In this deeply personal and refreshingly honest episode, hosts Zhitong Li and Phoebe Chen sit down with pianist and UCL Management Science student Kaito Mizukoshi for a conversation that flows between introspection, culture, and the unexpected rhythms of life with ADHD. 

Kaito opens up about receiving his ADHD diagnosis in London, years after growing up in Japan where the condition is often overlooked—or even quietly associated with success. He shares how this new understanding reshaped the way he studies, practices music, and takes care of himself, revealing the strategies, struggles, and surprising gifts that come with a restless mind. 

From five-hour piano practice sessions to battling distraction during coursework, from navigating UCL as an international student to finding connection across cultural gaps, Kaito reflects on identity, belonging, and the power of self-knowledge. 

The trio dive into stigma, romanticisation of mental health, friendship, and the small but meaningful ways we learn to work with—not against—our own nature. Set to the delicate beauty of Debussy performed by Kaito himself, this episode is an intimate look at how one student turns introspection into empowerment and transforms challenge into creativity.
