The DNA of Amazonian Cities
We were honoured to be invited by the Inter-American Development Bank to work with them on a series of The DNA of Cities episodes about Amazonian cities. This is the first time that we have taken the idea of The DNA of Cities to look at a group of cities and we were really excited to do this in such an important part of our world. Over three episodes, we explore the traits and characteristics of cities in the Amazon: The cities of the world’s largest tropical rainforest and the world’s longest and most powerful river.
