Hear from international experts, cities and winners of the Reinventing Cities competition on how cities are showing local resiliency and reimagining urban experiences and spaces post-pandemic.
Globally the Covid-19 pandemic has caused dramatic behavioural changes in the way we live, work and play in our cities. The new reality of offices, retail spaces and business districts becoming underutilised offers an opportunity to repurpose existing buildings via new placemaking approaches.
The shift to remote work has also created an appetite for green and thriving neighbourhoods - mixed-use community spaces where residents can find essential amenities in a short walk or bike ride from home.
