How to deal with a second wave and lockdown


Listen Later

Cities around the world are seeing a resurgence in coronavirus cases. Some have had to re-impose lockdowns, including in the UK.

This panel event will explore how other countries – and cities in the UK – are dealing with new localised lockdowns, and ask what the UK government can learn from them.


Georgina Wright, Senior Researcher at the Institute for Government, is in conversation with:


  • Sir Peter Soulsby, Mayor of Leicester
  • Nicolas Bauquet, Research Director at the Institut Montaigne
  • Danielle Wood, CEO of Grattan Institute.
