NextGen present their ideas and proposals for a reimagined future. Knowing what we know now, how do we build a flexible and resilient city that can stand up against any future crises? How do we harness this moment to tackle the climate emergency and plan for a greener future? How do we rebuild a city that is equitable and fair?
As part of the Build Back Better series, in which we showcase new ideas and solutions for a resilient post-pandemic London, this is a special NextGen event hearing from London’s young talent.
