21/05/2020 Rethinking Wales: The Future of Welsh Towns

May 21, 2020, 01:50 PM

This week the topic of the discussion is the future of Welsh towns and we will be exploring two questions:

What are the immediate problems Wales faces as a result of Covid-19?
What does Wales need to be thinking about in the long term?

An open, politically independent and inclusive space for discussion and debate is the best way to identify the challenges we face in Wales because of Covid-19, and work out where the opportunities for real change are.

We are well placed to bring those voices together, and the IWA #RethinkingWales series will explore how different sectors need to respond to this crisis and how we need to start thinking differently.
