Connective Cities Community organises another Insight Session on “The post-COVID City - bringing together urban practitioners to work towards greener cities”. It takes place on the 18 of October from 10:00 - 11:30 am CEST.
The coronavirus highlighted the importance of accessible green spaces, which are associated with improved physical and mental health for residents. The management of many cities in developing countries found that they lack green spaces, parks, and recreation areas, which are perceived as a “refuge” during the crisis. In the context of COVID-19, the 15-minute life circle concept (where essential public amenities or spaces are located within a 15-minute walkable and cycling distance) has gained attraction as a means of increasing the quality and sustainability of life in cities. This is also in line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal #11 on sustainable cities and communities that promotes universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible, green and public spaces as well as goal #13 on climate change that aims to shape the 21st century economy in ways that are clean, green, healthy, safe and more resilient.
