Dear IMPRI Well-wisher,
We hope you are healthy and safe.
Amid a global opening up of international travel and educational institutions, there have been fresh COVID cases and consequent localised lockdowns and curbs in many part of the world, including European nations, Russia, China, and others - a reminder to strictly commit to COVID-appropriate behaviour and safety protocols and not let our guard down.
This week's #WebPolicyTalks look at the city as environment in the lead-up to World Cities Day 2021 (October 31), and explore issues and challenges for the Asia-Pacific and Indo-Pacific regions.
The newsletter, as always, will apprise you of these upcoming events, IMPRI's recent publications, and videos of #WebPolicyTalks in case you missed them.
We hope to see you soon at one of our #WebPolicyTalks!
Wishing you the best for the week ahead,
Anshula Mehta, Senior Assistant Director, IMPRI
