Manage episode 338544618 series 2870116
And just like that, we're at the end of series 5!
To round off then, today we’re speaking to Valentine from Centre for Cities, a leading think tank dedicated to the prosperity of the UK’s towns and cities, who conduct a huge amount of research on everything from the impact of urban transport on the success of a local high street, to net zero and how cities can evolve to meet targets to policies like 'levelling up' and scrutinising what they mean...
Recently they’ve turned their attention to how the pandemic has impacted our local areas in different ways, and how we’re faring in our post-pandemic recovery.
Today is a super interesting discussion about the eternal north/south divide, how the pandemic pulled the issue of inequality into sharp focus and why our next steps on how we approach those issues matter, and how we can build more inclusive spaces and reimagine cities that better serve those that live there - enjoy!
