Cities after COVID-19: No return to “business as usual”
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, we have
shifted the focus of the C40 Newsletter to highlight global cities
responding to the virus and planning an equitable and sustainable recovery
for our people, our planet, and our economies.
MAYORS IN ACTION
The Global Mayors COVID-19 Recovery Task Force
recently launched a Statement of Principles for a green economic recovery
that says we cannot return to business as usual. Instead, we must strive to
build a better, more sustainable, more resilient and more equitable society
out of our recovery from the COVID-19 crisis. At the time of sending this
newsletter, almost 40 cities from around the world have endorsed the
statement.
C40’s strategy to support our cities and their
residents as they recover from COVID-19 will be governed by 9 principles
focused on promoting equity, enhancing public services, creating jobs for a
new economy, and improving resilience to protect against future threats, and
more.
