A new webinar on ‘Collaborative Spaces and supporting policies in times of pandemic. What are practical measures for policymakers post-Covid19 to help build innovative solutions with collaborative spaces?’ (in collaboration with CA18214 and RGCS) will be held on October 6 from 2 to 4.00 p.m. CET. Live on https://www.facebook.com/COSTActionCA18214NeW.Sp
Dr. Bastian Lange (University of Leipzig, Germany), MC Member and RGCS group member will moderate the discussion.
In post-Covid-19 times, there are a range of policy actions which can be implemented to mitigate the economic and social impact effects of the virus. Co-Design, co-operative and integrative measures can be seen as a combination of policy responses to tackle specific circumstances.
Together they form an array of site- and sector-specific instruments which can underpin inclusive growth, enabling individuals and communities to prosper. The measures are part of a systems approach to sustainable economic development. They will help underpin strategy for policymakers to focus on their objectives.
