COVID-19 has left the streets of our once overcrowded World Heritage Cities almost empty. What will happen when the pandemic has passed? Cities have once more become a crucial lab where to test and find innovative solutions. Learn more about this in the upcoming Re-scape on February 18 (registration is free).
This edition of the Re-Scape is initiated and hosted by Eldris Con Aguilar (Leiden Universiteit) and will feature Stijn Reijnders (Erasmus Universiteit), Karin Elgin Nijhuis (Consultant Elgin & Co and organizer Heritage, Tourism and Hospitality International Conference) and Valerie Higgins (American University in Rome).
