Connective Cities and its partners invite municipal practitioners to a two-day Covid-19 Response Dialogue on Covid-19 and municipal waste management to be held virtually on 9 and 11 November 2021.

The event brings together municipal experts from Germany with international urban practitioners to discuss municipal waste management during and after the pandemic.

Two main aspects of waste management and Covid-19 will be covered during the event:

1. The importance of a more circular economy, including a more sustainable approach to (re-)use of resources, recycling and the creation of jobs and
2. the adaptation of operation practices due to the pandemic and its experiences.

Both aspects can be better dealt with if gender-sensitive strategies are considered. Therefore, the exchange will give special attention to the gender perspective.
