The post Covid-19 urban agenda ‘from crisis to transformation’
Hosted by the South African Cities Network and University of Witwatersrand School of Governance
In combination with the book launch –
Deeper-City-Collective-Intelligence-and-the-Pathways-from-Smart-to-Wise
The pandemic impacts and lockdown responses have sucked the life-blood from our cities. If the pandemic continues, how to live with it? If it is contained, will cities just bounce back to the old ways, or just possibly forward to some kind of transformation? This is the agenda of the Pandemic-City-3.0: not only public health, but also economies, technologies, governance, urban design and so on. We look for possible synergies and transformations in each of these, based on collective intelligence, i.e. deeper and wider learning and thinking, between all concerned.
This first session is hosted by the South African Cities Network and the University of Witwatersrand School of Governance. The focus is on Southern Africa but the session is open to others interested in the bigger picture (pls register on www.urban3.net)
