Details

Covid 19 has impacted our economies and societies. It has changed our daily habits and has had a significant impact on our lifestyles, through lock-in or social distancing measures. The spatial consequences are obviously huge, regional impacts, closing of borders, geographical spread of the virus, social distancing, limitation of movements, tele-working, doubts about the sustainability of cities and return to rural areas, etc. or even the impact on teaching and research practices, much at a distance now. The round table addresses these questions with prestigious scholars and experts.
