Collection details
The Town Planning Review: COVID-19 Viewpoint Series includes over fifty viewpoints commissioned by the journal's co-editors; Daniel Baldwin Hess, John Sturzaker, and Alex Lord. The viewpoints come from thought leaders in both the academic and professional communities, looking at the impact of the pandemic on how we live, work, and play. The editors commisioned the series in the hope that the viewpoints will be useful for policy makers, advocates, scholars, students and indeed anyone with an interest in the future of our cities. Both as a means of stimulating reflection and improving practice in the present and near future, as planning seeks to address the changes wrought by the pandemic, and as a record of this ‘moment in time’ which future planning scholars and others can draw upon.
