Just out: UCLG's new study on the impact of COVID-19 on cities’ Smart resilience
Discover "Smart Cities Study 2021", a new study published by our world organisation, United Cities and Local Governements (UCLG), shedding light on the impact of COVID-19 on cities’ Smart resilience. 
 
This new study provides an overview of the pre-pandemic situation of 35 cities in 20 countries from Europe, Latin America, Africa and Asia. It identifies their level of digitisation and the “Smart” resources and tools they had. Participating cities in Europe include Brno, Ostend, Utrecht, Santander, Barcelona, Villanueva de la Serena, Gavà, Bilbao, Lappeenranta, Alba Lulia and Lasi.

It also analyses what impact the pandemic had on the different areas of local governance and what new “Smart” measures or tools were used to combat the negative consequences that were generated.

Finally, the study determines to what extent these types of actions have served to increase the resilience of cities, and to assess the usefulness of the new measures and tools for combating future crises. It also seeks to promote the exchange of knowledge including best practices developed by the cities.

The study is available in English and Spanish.
