About NewCities' Big Picture series: As the coronavirus pandemic brought urban life around the globe to a halt, we presented a digital initiative tackling the impacts of COVID-19 on city-making and city-planning around the world. Premiering April 7, 2020, and running for eight consecutive weeks, these live virtual discussions brought together leading global experts to examine the longer-term implications of the Covid-19 crisis.
[4/8]
On this episode of The Big Rethink, we envision a world of cities planned with health and wellbeing as a priority. We’ll discuss why this crisis puts the need for a new planning paradigm into perspective, the impact of COVID-19 on local communities and how they’ve adjusted the way they work, and what lessons from the last few weeks could be integrated in order to build equity, health, and wellbeing into long-term urban planning.
Speakers:
Dr. Maria Neira, Director, Department of Environment, Climate Change and Health, World Health Organization
Emmanuel Pratt, Co-founder, Sweet Water Foundation
