Events

As part of the programme, Future of London is hosting three seminars to consider the challenges of Localism in London on three key areas: Planning, Economic Development and Service Delivery. All events consist of short presentations from government, business and community sectors, followed by break-out sessions where smaller groups discuss the issues raised in more depth.

The sessions are designed for 20-30 people from the Future of London network, predominantly borough practitioners, but also government bodies, housing providers, academics and community organisations. They are an opportunity for people to share their opinions and experiences, which are a valuable contribution to the research. Summaries of the events are available online within a week of the event.

If you are interested in attending, please contact Jo for further information at Joanna@futureoflondon.org.uk.
