Global problems, local solutions: progressive ideas after COVID
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, local and regional authorities have been on the frontline to fight a virus that knows no borders, support people in difficulty, provide answers and create new solutions. Today, more than ever, cities and regions are needed to build back better our communities and create a more sustainable future that leaves no one behind.
