6. Nathalie Gazzaneo Finds Clues in Big Issues

Nathalie Gazzaneo, an attorney with interests in tech and public policy as well as political and economic development, sees barriers and challenges as clues to build a better future. She previously worked in public policy and privacy and has researched emerging technology's capacity for public impact. As part of the Problem Driven Iterative Action (PDIA) field class at Harvard Kennedy School, she and her team explored the root causes of abandoned infrastructure projects in Nigeria.

This conversation assessed methodologies to break down large, complex infrastructure development projects - which includes housing - to begin to understand how we move forward on problems that require huge financial and operational capital.
