On May 6th-7th, 2027, the Institute of Political Science at the University of Wrocław hosted the participants of the second event organised within the international research project ‘Urban Post-COVID Recovery in the V4 Countries’ financed by the International Visegrad Fund. The event consisted of three parts.
In the first, academic part of the event, the representatives of leading Polish, Czech, Slovak and Hungarian universities presented the results of the scientific research devoted to the project aims and assumptions. Moreover, introductory papers were presented by special guests - the key speakers: Professor Patrizia Magaro (Universita di Genova) and Professor Javier Lorenzo Rodriguez (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid).
The part two took the form of a round table debate devoted to the problems of post-COVID urban recovery. The debate was attended by not only scientists, but also practitioners representing the private and social sectors. As intended, various approaches to the recovery of municipal self-governments were confronted and discussed.
In the third part of the event the workshop aimed at students and PhD students were organized. The participants gained knowledge about the mechanisms of post-pandemic recovery and presented their own proposals on this topic. The presented ideas met with interest and raised questions and discussions.
It is worth emphasizing that the organized event was an online event and met with the keen interest of not only researchers, but also practitioners, doctoral students and students.
The project is co-financed by the Governments of Czechia, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia through Visegrad Grants from International Visegrad Fund. The mission of the fund is to advance ideas for sustainable regional cooperation in Central Europe.
