Madeleine has been awarded a Built Environment Fellowship by the Royal Commission for the Exhibition of 1851, for research into 'Collaborative Leadership in the Built Environment: Building Capability in the Next Generation'. Through the fellowship, she is developing 'The First 100 Days', a live research project exploring how design thinking can be embedded into the earliest stages of government decision-making for infrastructure and the built environment, including within emerging AI and digital systems.
