Build Back Better, embracing better living – Powered by PechaKucha

Talk

Monday 10 August 2020
16:00 - 17:00

Ideas for living that aid physical and mental health from inside and outside the home. 
From city wide ideas for better living to improving indoor air quality. We take a look at the ideas that will help to create happier and healthier societies and have a positive impact on our wellbeing.   
 
Build Back Better is a new initiative by NLA to respond to the current crisis. The series looks into the future, beyond the restrictions of our present situation. We invite innovative thinkers to present thought-provoking ideas and solutions for a resilient post-pandemic London.
