• From the 15-minute city to the 30-minute region: Rethinking how we live and connect

  What happens when we flip the urban planning script — putting people, not cars, at the heart of our cities and regions? In this 15-minute episode, Professor Carlos Moreno - creator of the “15-minute city” and now a leading voice behind the “30-minute region” - joins the OECD’s Soo-Jin Kim to explore how we can build more inclusive, connected and resilient places. From the sidewalks of Paris to rural areas reimagining public services, Carlos shares a bold vision of proximity, empowerment, and local opportunity. Tune in to hear how the future of urban and regional development might be just around the corner — literally.

• Power Shift: When First Nations Lead the Future

  What happens when First Nations take the lead in shaping the future of clean energy and infrastructure in Indigenous communities? In this episode, we hear from Mark Podlasly, CEO of the First Nations Major Projects Coalition (FNMPC) and member of the Nlaka’pamux Nation in British Columbia. He speaks with Sinead Teevan from the OECD about how the coalition is helping First Nations secure ownership in major energy and infrastructure projects. The FNMPC, now representing 175 communities across Canada, focuses on the economic, environmental, and public policy interests of its members. Together, they explore the power of Indigenous consent, the importance of equitable partnerships, and why integrating Indigenous values into policy and investment decisions isn’t just the right thing to do, it’s essential for reaching climate goals and long-term prosperity. With real-world examples, from clean energy projects to revenue-sharing agreements, this conversation highlights how economic reconciliation is not only possible, but already underway in Canada.

• Can you handle the truth? Putting misinformation to the test with the OECD Truth Quest Survey

  On a daily basis, we’re faced with a deluge of online content, only swelling further with the mainstreaming of generative AI and rising political polarisation.

The OECD Truth Quest Survey implements an innovative methodology to answer this question. With over 40,000 respondents across 21 countries, the survey provides unprecedented insights into media literacy and its implications for global policy making. In this episode of Behind the Numbers, our host Ashley Ward is joined by OECD Head of Digital Connectivity, Economics and Society Molly Lesher to discuss the dangers of misinformation, overcoming measurement challenges, and the survey results so far. Explore the work behind this innovative survey and learn how policymakers can use this data to create targeted strategies to fight misinformation.

• L’emploi à l’ère de l’IA générative—une opportunité pour tous et partout ? – avec Eric Pérès

  L’intelligence artificielle générative transforme rapidement les marchés du travail, notamment à l’échelle locale. Elle aide à combler les pénuries de main d'œuvre et renforce la productivité. Mais elle creuse aussi la fracture numérique entre les zones urbaines et rurales. Dans cet épisode des Podcasts de l'OCDE, Pauline Arbel et Karen Maguire accueillent Eric Pérès, le Secrétaire général de FO-Cadres. Au fil de leur conversation, Karen et Eric explorent la question de l’impact géographique à l’ère de l’IA générative. Invité : Eric Pérès Animation : Pauline Arbel et Karen Maguire, Cheffe de division pour le Programme pour l'emploi et le développement économique au niveau local (LEED) Pour en savoir plus: Rapport "Création d'emplois et développement économique local : La géographie de l'IA générative" paru en novembre 2024 en anglais. https://www.oecd.org/en/publications/job-creation-and-local-economic-development-2024_83325127-en.html Pour en savoir plus sur l’OCDE et ses travaux, consultez https://www.oecd.org/fr Pour s’abonner à la lettre d’information de l’OCDE : https://www.oecd.org/fr/about/newsletters.html
