UK Regional Inequalities, Levelling Up, and the Post-Covid Challenges
The talk will examine the likely implications of the coronavirus pandemic for the 'levelling up' agenda
by considering the immediate shocks to the system which are currently at play, the likely medium-term fall-out from these shocks, and the long-term economic and policy implications of these short and medium term disturbances.

He is one of the world’s most highly cited and widely published spatial economists and economic geographers of his generation. Philip is the Co-Director and Principal Investigator of the £2.28 million Productivity Insights Network+ research programme funded by the UK Economic and Social Research Council 2018-2020.
