For the 7th Edition (June 25, 2020), we highlight the inclusive solutions cities are creating to meet the food and financial needs of vulnerable communities; the integrated role of universities and construction projects in supporting place based local economic recovery; the frailties of the utility sector in the face of delayed revenue, and falling demand and prices; and how planning for recovery is incorporating redundancies for future emergencies.

Produced by The University of Manchester, UK (Professor Duncan Shaw, Dr Jennifer Bealt, David Powell, and Professor Ruth Boaden) in partnership with the Global Resilient Cities Network (Sam Kernaghan)
