Key messages from our city dialogue on mitigating the socio-economic impact of COVID-19 in cities
Republished by ECBN from: Eurocities
EUROCITIES brought together 120 strategists from 60 European cities across 23 countries in direct dialogue with OECD to discuss the socio-economic impact of COVID-19 in cities and how to tackle them. This was one in a series of online city dialogues organised by EUROCITIES to inform, connect cities and facilitate city-to-city dialogue on responses to fight COVID-19 crisis and its impact. Cities are pro-actively leading the way towards recovery by setting out holistic local recovery plans, which have in common –among others– the coordination across city services. Many cities have set up internal taskforces to monitor the socio-economic situation, generate timely policy responses and coordinate action plans for recovery (i.e. Barcelona’s Centre for Economic Response Coordination, Bologna’s taskforce on impact on tourism and culture).
